Key Takeaways:

• Attorneys are encouraged to specialize in niche areas of law and share referrals through various online platforms, maximizing their ability to provide quality service without geographical limitations.

• The value of organically grown audiences on social media for lawyers cannot be overstated; engagement extends beyond transactional attorney-client interactions.

• Law firms can benefit from technology-enabled networks that facilitate case referrals across a wide geographic span, thereby optimizing both client service and business growth.

• It is vital for firms to separate their businesses into origination and case management or litigation arms to avoid limiting their growth and potential revenue streams.
