Tips for Young Lawyer

Tips for Young Lawyers  Young Lawyers: How to positively differentiate the legal market? Experience: Talent knows no age. Youth can be a source of opportunities. The main opportunity for young lawyers is that they do not usually have so many prejudices and some elders. Limited preconceived opinions in the business world. What is experience? Is the ability to learn from the life of each customer case. This capacity depends on oneself rather than age. To think that a veteran lawyer is an expert on age alone is absurd and mental restraint for young lawyers. Park your fear, your other possible barrier paper. The ability to think big costs no money and only those who think big to find opportunities. Think big computing well as investing their money and their time. If you have good values, no one will "steal" their dreams. Imagine a young graduate who has been trained in legal practice and decided to join the profession. Usually the first thing that comes to mind is to try to join a firm or partner with other partners and open office. It is not essential. The key is to market its own strategy; a strategy defined, in writing, and opts for one of the above options.  Constantly update their knowledge and reflect, however, the following. Knowledge, while essential, no marketing strategy is not going to go too far. As George Bernard Shaw: "Those who can, do, Those Who Cannot, teach [" Those who can, do, those who cannot, teach. "] Attitude: Attitude is the base. To get new results, you should do different things. If not, the reason for his professional roof is yourself. Do not blame others.  Learn to be stronger mentally, gaining self-esteem is essential to make a name in the profession. Improve self-esteem, self-acceptance is essential to better sell legal services. Admire, Admire, not envy. For example, if you aspire to have a large law firm, the best we can do is admire the large law firms. So you can learn from them. If you envy them, lose energy unnecessarily. Values: What makes the difference? The values ​​and style. You must know explicitly their values, define and communicate. Vision: What is your vision for the future? Want to be an alternative to law firms that support the internationalization of companies in your country? An example: For years I have been creating a wide network of international contacts, influential law firms and indigenous major international markets. Firms are willing to support European business associations and my clients in their international expansion. If I’ve done, you can too.  Having a direction (vision) is transcendental. Your dreams (vision) are becoming reality at the time that the plasma in writing, define objectives, strategies, actions, responsible for their achievement and a calendar. Their market research: The world is full of conquerors trying to change others, when the first thing to do is to change or improve yourself. If you improve, start to get new results. Therefore, the epicenter of your market research you and your office. It is essential that you know your strengths and areas for improvement. Ask your colleagues how you are perceived. Leverage your personal brand on the basis of their virtues or strengths.  The professional profile – In a hypercompetitive world, the measured profile is the lawyer-consultant, ie a lawyer to help customer oriented and able to identify customer needs and even anticipate them. An attorney with business profile, a professional who brings value to the customer. Picture: We are an image. Until we know, for those is a picture: pleasant, reliable, trained, ready, unfriendly, etc. Why are first impressions so important, when forming perceptions. Watch your language verbal and gestural detail. Language creates perception, the door of business. Fees: Anyone can compete on lower fees.  Taken from: Admin Pawter. (n.d.).
