Katy Mickelson is a Divorce and Family Law Attorney at Beermann LLP. She sees the importance of even the little parts of being a lawyer and the difference it can make in the relationship between a lawyer and their clients. She sits down with host Kory Underdown to share her tips on how to run a successful solo practice.
Takeaways
- Getting clients has a lot to do with who you are as a person. It’s important to be your true authentic self.
- You want to have a good reputation. It takes a long time to build but it all comes down to who you hire, how you handle cases and your ability to relate to your clients.
- Having a good relationship with your clients is important. You have to be honest with them, you can’t always be a yes person. You should always be transparent with them.
- Clients need to be heard. If they feel like they aren’t being heard, they will tune out anything you are saying.
- Listening is key. Sometimes the best thing you can do is sit and listen to what the client is saying.
- Lack of explanation and information to the client can be extremely detrimental. Walk the client through the process in a very elementary way to make sure they understand.
- Clients are typically in a situation where they are so stressed out that they might not understand things they typically get.
Quote of the show:
5:12 “There's a process of building that trust with the client. I think what comes from that is being responsive, being honest, and telling clients what they might not want to hear. Because I think that that commands more respect than being a yes person.”
