BK 101 Series - Session 8 - If You Build It, They Will (Not) Come: Marketing & Ethics for Small Firm

Bankruptcy 101 Series - Session 8

Do I really need a program to learn how to practice bankruptcy law?

I thought it was just filling out a bunch of forms!

Presented by Jim Christy and Claude Ducloux

If You Build it, They Will (Not) ComeMarketing & Ethics for a Small Firm

 

Knowing how to communicate your skills to the people who need your talent is important. But but once you get clients in the door, every one of them becomes very important to your future, your practice, and is a source of referral. 

Jim Christy of Postali will take you through the client buying journey.  Claude E. Ducloux, a nationally known CLE speaker on legal ethics, client management and law office operations, will take you through the important skills that aren’t taught in law school.

You’ll learn: interviewing skills; problem-solving; daily rules and habits; setting goals; discovering and handling conflicts of interest; privacy policies and handling sensitive information; the special skill of handling difficult clients; and correct use of attorney trust accounts.

This entertaining presentation will end with a no-holds-barred Q & A session.
