Tiger Tactics: Powerful Strategies for Winning Law Firms Paperback – Import, 1 February 2019

This is a very well done book. I loathe, loathe, loathe “self-help” books - as most are inane, inpractical, and poorly written - but the opposite of each was true with this book. It iz frounded, practical, and an enjoyableread. As someone who tried to get a law form off the ground, but couldnt - I reallllly wish I had had this book before I tried. As the authors readily admit, it is not a manual to opening a firm, but more a lesson plan. It wont tell you exactly what to do to open and create a successful law firm, but it will put your head in the right place to determine what to do and do it.It is also quite amazing how candid the authors are in both their successful strategies as well as there memorable mistakes. The only lawyer of the group I know personally is Bill Umansky - so I paid especially close attention to his parts and am glad I did. What his parts show is that like in most fields, there is no hidden secret to success or trait that makes you a person destined for success, just hard word and drive. This is quite satisfying, because it shows anyone can do it. His parts also highlight what is best about this book: that is goes over both the general concets,but also grounds them with relateableexamples of their application (too many books like this dont - and just stat vague).Definitely a worth-while read

When I was in law school, Foonberg's "How to Start and Build a Law Practice," was required reading. While a basic primer on the subject, it hasn't aged well or been updated in too long. In this day and age, digital marketing, applications, and practice management shifts by the moment. This book is the Foonberg for the modern era and should be required reading for anyone thinking of starting their own firm. It's approachable for people of all walks--those considering starting a firm out of law school and those who may own a firm already.It's complete with different perspectives, across practice areas, and contains the kind of honest self-reflection and disclosure that Brene Brown would be proud of. This book is as much an act of courage for the lawyers who share their journeys in it, as it is a gift to the lawyering community. It is honest, approachable, and practical.I can't recommend the book more highly and will gift it to anyone I can for years to come.

Every law firm owner needs to get exposed to the concepts and value shared in this book from the perspective of 5 tactical successful law firm owners who have first done it for themselves and now sharing it with other law firm owners. There are lots of winning strategies and insights shared that any law firm owner can take advantage of.

What if you had access to five different lawyers who built highly successful practices. What if those five lawyers' had common elements that catapulted them into massive success?Lawyers with a cross-section of different practice areas, such as: Family law, Divorce, Criminal law, Personal injury, Consumer law & bankruptcy...If you could manage to find these lawyers you'd want to sit them down and interview them. You'd want to access all of the practical wisdom you could, right? You'd want to compare their various approaches to get a clear grasp of the common elements of their success.But it would NOT be realistic to expect to be able to do this, right?First, you'd have to find five successful lawyers who were willing to spend time explaining their thought processes. Then you'd have to visit them wherever they were to interview them. And you'd have to transcribe the interviews and then distill their insights down to some kind of text document that you could pore over and refer back to from time to time.Well, good news: you don't have to. All of that is in this book.And it's just sitting there waiting for you to tap into the insights that will lead you to massive improvements in your practice. Now...There is one small bit of "bad news." Namely, that this not a conventional book. So...you must approach this book in the right way or...you’ll fail to see the huge opportunities it offers.Approach the book as a conversation you're having with those five lawyers —a conversation you can go back to whenever you want to (because the conversation was transcribed into a book). In other words, this is not a book you read through once. It’s a reference resource.And best of all? The authors are exceptionally candid about the mistakes they made in building their practices.So if you have some nagging feeling that maybe you lack some talent or skill that is needed to succeed... Well, that doubt will be erased when you see that the authors all had similar doubts and challenges.If you have any curiosity at all about how to improve your practice, and you want clear guidance on HOW to improve it then order this book now.

This really is a very good and very helpful book for anyone who runs or manages a law firm. There are great practical tips as well as very interesting discussions that help to change the way I approach the management of my firm and question the ways I have always done things. I find myself taking notes on almost every chapter and have started to implement the strategies discussed. I strongly recommend this book to anyone running or managing a law firm or thinking about starting their own firm. I only wish I had this book earlier in my career.
