So what’s next?

That’s the question most young lawyers ask themselves at some point after they start in legal practice.

Unfortunately, the Legal Profession is not well geared towards answering that question.

Instead, young lawyers find themselves thrown into the ebb and flow of daily practice, without much of an opportunity to stand back and really think: what do I need to succeed in this career?

For years throughout your education and training the end results have been obvious – finish study, finish training, get admitted as a lawyer.

But then you complete those tasks, and all of a sudden the future becomes more blurry.  Become a partner?  Get promoted?  Start a firm?  These might be the big picture aspirations, but what are you going to do NOW?

What are the skills you don’t have but need?  How can you advance in your career a little bit each day, or even in leaps and bounds?  How do you write a letter, develop client relationships, and start bringing in work to your firm?

These are the questions all young lawyers have at some point, and they are what I created Tips for Lawyers to provide solutions to.
