In general, they feel better about their career and themselves. The client comes first. This belief or mindset means that you educate the client about the judicial system and the particulars of his or her matter, develop reasonable expectations in the client and then perform as though this were the only client you were serving. Grateful and appreciative clients will always come knocking when this attitude is genuinely felt. Think like an owner.
Most attorneys are very hard working professionals.
But, increasingly, many think like employees, merely punching their time card on a daily basis. Coupled with the attitude that the client comes first, your actions are now based on keeping clients and increasing the firm s revenues and profits, a sure recipe for personal success. Be a problem-solver. Instead of just reacting, look ahead for solutions to client problems. Too many good attorneys are so busy with immediate concerns that they cannot look forward for ways to solve future problems.
