How I became a law firm Partner after 4 years qualified? Spoiler alert: you can do it too. Here’s my secret sauce: -  collaborate with your colleagues -  under promise & over deliver - always -  build genuine connections with clients -  communicate and hit those urgent deadlines -  cross refer work to your firm’s other departments -  get all your clients’ work, even if it’s not your ‘niche’ -  ask Partners questions about the firm as a business -  master your skill to produce exceptional, quality work And remember to enjoy the journey along the way. What have I missed?

We knew if we built it, they would come. And we knew it had to be different. A legal marketing and #businessdevelopment company that leads with purpose, kindness, and passion. Yes, it can be hard to believe those three words could be used together when talking about the legal market. Jennifer Ramsey and I have our fair share of stories about #legal professionals who have belittled, demoralized and were just plain mean, to us and our colleagues, to say the least. We are focused on generating revenue and increasing clients, but not at the expense of people. We give back and give away our time, speak our truth, lend our platform to others, and consider different perspectives. Leading with empathy is core to our ethos and how we serve our #clients. stage is a small company, and creating a one-size-fits-all for our services would be much easier for us. Except we don’t. We tailor and customize everything, which is more work for us and better for our clients. The thing about building your own business is that you have to trust in yourself and trust that it will happen. What are you building? #stage

Modern Counsel profiled Rick Hansen '00, senior vice president, deputy general counsel-corporate, and corporate secretary at HP. The article described his long and varied legal career at some of America's largest companies and included his tips for new lawyers. “Challenge yourself to explore new things and get out of your own silo or swim lane," Hansen advised. "Sometimes you’ll need to fake it ‘til you make it, but that kind of variety has brought me a lot of satisfaction in my career.” Read the piece here: https://lnkd.in/gbYe3DJ8

Celebrating 6 months into my journey as a Fractional General Counsel 🌟! As I mark this milestone, I can't help but feel profoundly grateful for the trust and collaboration I've experienced. These past months have been a whirlwind of challenges and victories, but above all, they've been filled with meaningful connections and invaluable lessons. Being able to provide strategic guidance and legal expertise to diverse organizations has been incredibly rewarding. Each client brings its own set of opportunities and hurdles, pushing me to continuously evolve and innovate in my approach. From navigating complex regulatory landscapes to crafting impactful contracts, every task has reinforced my passion for empowering businesses to thrive while mitigating risk. But beyond the legal intricacies, what truly touches my heart is the relationships forged along the way. Working closely with visionary leaders and passionate teams, I've witnessed firsthand the dedication and resilience that drive success. It's these human connections that remind me why I chose this path—to make a genuine difference in the lives of those I serve. So here's to the next six months and beyond! I look forward to continuing this journey, tackling new challenges, and building even stronger bonds with all of you. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your story and for trusting me with your legal needs. Together, we'll navigate the future with confidence and resilience.
