In other words starting out with few clients, starting a store front, starting with very little axcept your knowledge of trials and litigationIm looking for that book. Im a lawyer , the problem is if you want to start a solo practice and dont have the connections, the author talks about, basically starting on your own after 15 years in personal injury, making millions for other people- this book doesnt address that.
Take advantage of this good advice. Foonberg is incredibly generous in sharing the tools and attitudes that will benefit your practice. Mr.
It is useful to novice and master alike. My husband started his own firm and found this an invaluable resource. This is hands down the most helpful and informative book on starting your own law firm.
Now, almost a year later, he still finds pearls of wisdom that are applicable. Even if your resources are limited, this is the book to buy. Read it before you gear up your practice.
Then keep it on hand for encouragement and advice as the firm grows.
Foonberg writes about maintaining client relationships, billing, and building up a practice both relevant and practical. Despite that shortcoming, Mr. Foonberg's book is one of the best I've read about managing and building a successful a solo practice.
I would have given this book five stars, but I agree with what the reviewer Michael G. Foonberg's many insights and practical methods for lawyers have direct relevance for consultants as well. Romano and others have written (below) that the sections on the internet and especially the use of email are remarkably out of date for such an otherwise useful book.
I'm a consultant, not a lawyer, but Mr. The author's humanistic, ethics driven approach is also much appreciated. This is a book to be put on the shelf next to Alan Weiss's many excellent books on building a consulting practice.
Consultants will find much of what Mr. I also liked the short chapters, which make it easy to pick up the book over and over again, getting a few nuggets of knowledge each time.
I would refer back to it. There are some REALLY bad books in this category- I think its worth about $30. Couldn't get it at the library, so took a chance and bought it. I've been in business a while and just wanted supplement existing knowledge.
Highly recommended. Gotta hand it to Foonberg. This book is required, simply cannot be done without.
