5 Things Every Good Lawyer Needs
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Being a good lawyer isn’t just about being knowledgeable in the law – it’s about having the whole package. To be a successful lawyer, you need more than just an extensive understanding of the law; you need expert lawyer marketing, a thorough online profile, an incentive for word-of-mouth referrals, and more. Here are the five things every good lawyer needs:

1. Good lawyer marketing

If you want to be a successful lawyer, you need to market yourself well. This means having a strong online presence, actively networking, and knowing how to market your unique skills and experience. Without good marketing, potential clients will never know you exist – so make sure you invest time and energy into promoting yourself and your law firm.

2. A thorough online profile

In today’s digital age, potential clients will almost certainly research you online before deciding whether or not to hire you. As such, it’s important to have a thorough and up-to-date online profile – ideally on both your personal website and on your law firm’s website. Include detailed information about your education, work experience, skills, and case results. The more complete your profile is, the more likely potential clients will be to hire you.

3. An incentive for word-of-mouth referrals

Word-of-mouth referrals are still one of the best ways to generate new business – but only if you give your clients a reason to refer you to their friends and family members. Offer existing clients a discount on their legal fees for every new client they refer to you; this way, they’ll be more likely to sing your praises to everyone they know.

4. A passion for justice (or at least your area of practice)

This one’s a given, but it still deserves a mention nonetheless. No one wants to hire a lawyer who doesn’t care about their case – so if you want to be successful, you need to have a passion for justice (or at least for the area of practice you’ve chosen). Clients will be able to tell if you’re passionate about their case and more likely to hire you if they believe you’ll fight tooth-and-nail for them.

5. Strong writing skills

Last but not least, all good lawyers need strong writing skills. This is because much of what lawyers do involves writing – from drafting contracts and legal documents to drafting demand letters and arguing motions. If your writing skills aren’t up to par, potential clients will take their business elsewhere – so make sure you brush up on your grammar and style before hanging out your shingle.

Being a successful lawyer takes more than just knowing the law inside out; it takes having the whole package. To be truly successful in today’s competitive legal landscape, you need good marketing skills, a strong online presence, excellent writing skills, and more. Keep these five things in mind as you develop your career as a lawyer, and you’ll be sure to find success.
