In this episode:
Smaller law firms can often feel hopelessly outmatched. Larger, better-established firms feel like they have every advantage going their way. Even the “small firm” charm can be difficult to achieve in larger cities with more direct competition. You know that your firm is worth it, but how do you convince clients to take a chance on you?
There are a host of variables for the success of a law firm: marketing, experience, social media, specialties and more. These smaller law firms need to excel on all of these fronts to gain the traction they’re hoping for. Multiple legal marketing companies have sprouted up to fill this need, but few have the experience of Allison Williams. She has worked as a lawyer and the owner of a firm. Now, she coaches growing firms to help them thrive in the places they once struggled. She has guided countless firms before, and now she’s here to help you.
