    Diversify or Die: How One PI Lawyer Is Future-Proofing His Firm with Josh Stein

    Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERE Are you a law firm owner looking for some advice on running a successful firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, Tyson engages in a conversation with Josh Stein, a personal injury lawyer, about the evolving landscape of personal injury law and the challenges of running a law firm.  Running a law firm is a challenging task even for seasoned attorneys. Josh speaks to the benefits of working alongside a mentor to help navigate the journey of firm ownership. Law school will not teach you the business side of things, which is what Josh learned from his mentor. Whether it be learning how to work with a client, going through audits or mastering the art of tax season, a mentor is crucial to learning the ropes and running a successful law firm. Authenticity is an important trait to have as an attorney. Being true to yourself as a person will translate in how you work with clients. When informing clients about their cases, especially if they are calling to inquire about their situation, be upfront and honest about how you can help (if you can help at all) and let them know how things will play out. This will help the client in the long run and save both of you a lot of time. Listen in to learn more!

In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, host Tyson Mutrux interviews Brett Stewart about his career journey, highlighting both his successes and failures. Brett shares valuable insights into the risks he took in business, the challenges of leadership, and the importance of fostering a healthy team environment.  Brett chats about the need to create a healthy team for a successful law firm. A healthy team has good conflict where people can share ideas and there is a sense of security where leaders will appreciate the feedback or thoughts of those under them. Another thing to consider is to establish team roles and who should do what. It is important to understand from the perspective of the owner how you want your team to look. Consult those on the team to get opinions on who should be responsible for what and how the team should function. It is best to do this collaboratively to ensure everyone is happy and knows their roles. Using EOS systems is an integral part of running a successful firm. It is important to figure out how to use a system to fit your goals, without weakening it. EOS can make complicated systems or processes a lot easier, but it shouldn't be used to manage or control every part of your firm. Brett shares how EOS should be used to shine a light on the important things that need it and your staff should manage everything else.
