- For all lawyers who represent "the people," the existing client is the lifeblood of their practice. Your relationship with an existing client is by far your best advertisement for future business. Be sure to spend some time getting to know your clients. Inquire about their family, goals and future plans beyond the resolution of their legal matter with you. Remind them that you are their lawyer for life and they should call you with any legal issues or questions in the future. You want to brand yourself and your business as their one-stop shop for legal issues. Again, even if the question deals with another area of law, you want to be thought of in your clients' minds as their legal resource and consultant. They should never hire another lawyer for any reason without first consulting you about it. This practice allows you to refer the client to lawyers whom you not only trust and are confident will do a good job, but it provides an avenue for reciprocation of referrals., Writer, The Art of Generating Legal Business For the Young Lawyer, The Legal Intelligencer, Attorneys, Legal Industry, 2013
