Let’s review. This blog, “What About Clients?”, is about just three (3) simple ideas:
1. Real Service. Corporate clients all over the world are underserved and not happy. You can change that. But client service, like practicing law correctly, is very hard. You need to work at it.
2. International. In short, American lawyers need to meet lawyers and clients from other countries.
3. The New Muscle Boutiques. Or “Give Me Your Tired, Your Rich Abused Fortune 500 Clients“. Boutique firms with top legal talent in the Americas, Europe and Asia are still bottom feeding. Unless your firm is doing a quality-of-life experiment, or trying to make law practice easy and not stimulating, you should be actively pitching to and stealing BigLaw clients. Get off your knees, get a grip. It’s okay, we live in a free markets world. Just keep your rates high and your services superb.
