The support network you need
Join our growing community of small firm and solo attorneys who are trailblazing better ways to practice law in the 21st century. All you need is an email to unlock your benefits.
Lawyerist has always attracted a community of innovative and entrepreneurial small-firm lawyers. Not like-minded, exactly. Call us similarly different-minded lawyers who are trying to figure out a better way to solve legal problems for clients.
But when we try to bring our ideas to other lawyers, we tend to get blank stares or objections. Tell a Lawyerist Insider, however, and you are more likely to get an encouraging “yes, and ….” Insiders are excited to engage with new ideas about the future of their practices. We think about law practice as a profession as well as a business. We design law firms for growth with the client at the center.
Perks for Lawyerist Insiders
Entry into our private Facebook group: Ask honest questions and get real answers from Lawyerist coaches and other small firm and solo attorneys. Our Insiders are active daily, swapping tips on everything from software and hiring to sustainable growth and work-life balance. (Lawyers from the US and Canada only)
Access to all 17 resources in the Insider Library: Here you’ll find downloadable worksheets and templates to help you create a brand identity, choose relevant business KPIs, prepare for a tech audit, and more!
View your scorecard results: If you haven’t taken the Small Firm Scorecard yet, it’s a must! We’ll assess your firm’s strengths and weaknesses so you can walk away with a clear plan for improvement.
Get on the list for our Insider-only weekly newsletter: You’ll be the first to hear our major announcements. We also love to surprise our Insiders every once in a while!
