Key Takeaways:
Choosing a niche you are passionate about, such as sexual violence litigation, can lead to a fulfilling and successful law practice, even if it is not initially popular or lucrative.
Building strong community ties and professional networks is crucial for gaining referrals, support, and maintaining a positive reputation in your practice area.
Starting lean and mean, avoiding unnecessary expenses, and expanding only when necessary can help manage risks and ensure sustainable growth for your law firm.
Providing trauma-informed care and support for clients, especially in sensitive cases like sexual violence, can enhance client satisfaction, trust, and case outcomes, ultimately contributing to the success of your practice.
