About this webinar

Like a mini-MBA for lawyers, this four-part series offers lawyers a unique opportunity to develop essential business and leadership skills that law school never taught but that lawyers really need to know to effectively run a legal practice and deliver excellent legal service to clients.  This series will also equip lawyers with practical tools and strategies to break down the barriers that contribute to disconnection so they can build trust and communicate for influence and impact. 

Join us for Essential Business Skills for Busy Lawyers Part 2 – Build Your Legal Practice Like a Pro.

Building a legal practice is really about building relationships. This CLE will highlight the keys to successfully build your legal practice, with an emphasis on compliance with the Rules of Professional Conduct. We will solve for the dreaded cocktail party “what do you do” question. We will also discuss strategies for attorneys to market themselves both within their firms as well as to external clients.

The presenter is Colleen Byers, JD, MBA, RYT200 of Colleen Byers Mediation, LLC (https://www.byersmediation.com) a seasoned litigator, mediator, legal educator, certified yoga instructor, and 2020 North Carolina Lawyer of the Year.
