    How You Can Adapt to the Evolving Media Landscape for Better Client Engagement with Justin Berry

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE Are you a lawyer who is trying to improve their social media presence? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, Tyson speaks with Justin Berry, a media and marketing expert about the evolution of media from legacy to new media and its impact on advertising, particularly for lawyers.  Media, both old and new can be used as an advantage for lawyers as a way to gain traction and clients. A lot of lawyers still use old legacy media, like billboards and tv adverts. In today’s world, this media doesn’t work as well, as new legacy media, including social media, has changed the game when it comes to advertising services.  Old legacy media does not allow for potential clients to trust you or have the chance to build trust. Social media can help lawyers interact with audiences over many months or years, which can allow people to trust the information you are putting out there. Creating engaging content as a lawyer can be challenging, but Justin provides some strategies that can be used to make it successful. One strategy is to think about who your audience is and what content they are watching on a daily basis. With this, you can create content around the audience’s interest so the algorithm will send them your videos. Another strategy is splitting your content throughout the week that targets different audiences. For example, if you want to create 4 videos a week, dedicate 2 videos to attorneys and 2 videos to the average client. This way you are connecting with colleagues and potential clients at the same time.

    A Law Firm Owner's Guide to Demystifying Financial Statements with Brian Feroldi

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE Are you a law firm owner who is looking for some advice when it comes to the company’s finances? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, Tyson Mutrux engages in a thought-provoking discussion with Brian Feroldi, a seasoned expert in stock picking and financial statement analysis. The conversation centers around the importance of understanding financial statements and how this knowledge can be particularly beneficial for law firm owners. Brian delves into the importance of financial education for those in the legal field. For law firm owners, it is important to understand how to create financial statements and what it means for a business as it relates to determining success. Determining success can be done by analyzing financial statements and finding out how much profit a company is making, the direction of their financial results and the balance of cash and liabilities. For those who are thinking about acquiring a business, these factors are important to think about. Scaling a law firm needs to be done strategically or else it can fail. The more successful a law firm is, the more cash they will eat. That is why many firms need lines of credit, because the access to cash in the bank is not always readily available. For firms to stay afloat, owners need to balance growth with having the cash to support it.

    Transitioning From a Defense Firm to an Injury Firm

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE Are you an attorney who is looking to transition to person injury (PI) law? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer, host Tyson addresses a listener's question about transitioning from a defense firm to a personal injury (PI) practice.  The transition to a PI practice involves a change in mindset from defense to client focused. For those hoping to make this transition, it is important to focus all your efforts on the case and client and to do everything in your power to win but not get consumed by the truthfulness of a client. A strategy to get to this point is understanding how a case affects a person at every level. Think about how the case affects one’s mental health, their professional life and family dynamics. Transitioning from one practice area to another will not happen without intentional networking with those in the PI field. Starting in a new field like PI will mean a slow gradual climb in cases. Through networking, some other lawyers might send you cases they either don't want or can’t handle. Personal injury cases will include medical terminology that you will need to become familiar with. Get to know what conservative care is and the importance of MRI’s. This will allow you to not only become a better PI attorney but build trust with your client. Take a listen to learn more! 03:57 The importance of shifting from a defense mindset to a client-focused approach  7:53 The need to gain trial experience to enhance case values and effectiveness 8:51 The importance of networking with personal injury attorneys  12:37 Understanding defense strategies to better navigate personal injury cases Tune in to today’s episode and checkout the full show notes here.

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE Are you an aspiring lawyer who is looking for some guidance? In this engaging podcast episode, Tyson Mutrux and Marco Brown discuss their experiences in Las Vegas and Marco's recent trips to Austin and Houston. The conversation delves into themes of personal branding, respect, and the importance of mindset.  Tyson and Marco chat about some of the aspects of being lawyers, including some challenges that exist. Marco speaks to how wearing a suit serves as a suit of armor for many lawyers. For some, suits represent confidence to do your job well and respect that is given from other lawyers or clients. Most times, people trust lawyers when they show up wearing a suit because it looks professional. Marco delves into the importance of using fear as motivation when it comes to working in the legal field. For Marco, he used the fear of failing as a lawyer and disappointing his family as motivation to keep working hard. It is important to not stay in that place of fear, as overtime it can keep you from achieving better. But if you use it as a motivator for a period of time until you get to a more stable place, it can be beneficial. This fear will lead to mistakes early on, but the learning curve will allow you to become a better lawyer.
