	<li><strong>Stay up-to-date</strong>: Not only do you need to stay current on technology; you need to stay up-to-date on the current events. What is happening in the world affects your firm, whether you realize it or not.</li>
	<li><strong>Keep in contact with your network</strong>: You need to keep connected to your network, which should be comprised of attorneys, legal staff, former and current clients, and more. You never know when another top lawyer friend is in need of a new place to work or when clients may be looking for service. Your network should also be a source of positive inspiration.</li>

	<li><strong>Be involved</strong>: Law firms that are active in their communities will have a stronger reputation and greater loyalty with clients. Sponsor events for kid sporting teams or charities to get your name out there by advertising – think of it as doing two-things-in-one.</li>
	<li><strong>Customer service is critical</strong> – If a client does not feel that they are being treated properly or not how they want, they will leave. Keep your clients around by treating them like they are the number one priority.</li>
	<li><strong>Pick your battles</strong>: Not every fight can be won. Know when it is time to back down or to fight to the end.</li>

									<!-- <p class="fs-16">Not all brilliant law school graduates get to land an attorney position with a big law firm. Some have to look for an appropriate opening in the corporate private sector. There are plenty of jobs to choose from in this sector for lawyers, as it is the second largest employment source for lawyers. However, working as an attorney in the private corporate sector is quite different from practicing in a law firm.</p> -->

									<!-- <p class="fs-16">Many law firms seek corporate clients as much for prestige as for potential revenue and profits. In the process, they overlook the fact that often, a corporate client is interested in cost containment as well as effectiveness. Consequently, the negotiated fees end up being on the low side of current market trends. For certain tasks, some will consider and negotiate value billing. In speeches, panel discussions, and journal articles by corporate counsel, it is abundantly clear what they want. In attracting corporate clients, brochures can be practically valueless, particularly if they are just sent out in a random search effort. This is because the attorney or firm must respond to specific client needs. A brochure is normally too general to do this and can only be a supplement to a client-based approach.</p> -->

And the way attorneys use paralegals has changed for the better as well. Gone are the days when a paralegal was hired to be a glorified secretary with some legal research skills. Today's paralegals are actively involved in many facets of the law office operation, no matter what the specialty.</p> -->
