A lot’s happened in the world over the past two years, and things continue to change at a rapid pace. We’ve all been squeezed financially, and current inflation resulting from the dynamic between the US, Russia, and Ukraine is only making things worse.
It might be easy to bury your head in the sand, cross your fingers, and hope that your practice, your family, and your life in general won’t suffer too much.
But there’s tremendous value in not ignoring these issues, as Richard Jacobs explains. He stresses the importance of staying calm, but being smart by looking ahead to the next six months or year. What’s on the horizon? How will different practice areas be impacted? And most importantly, how can you prepare for what’s to come, in order to protect what you have?
Richard will explore these topics in a new, purely information series so that you can stay informed and be confident about the critical decisions you make in the near future.

About Richard Jacobs
My name is Richard Jacobs, and I've discovered quite a bit about the plight of solo practitioners and small, 2-5 attorney firms like yours these past 12 years.
I've come to understand the unique challenges in marketing ethically and effectively that attorneys face because I have:
- Helped over 180 attorneys author their own practice area book and become the 'implied expert' in their practice area
- Helped hundreds of attorneys successfully navigate Google's search algorithm changes, growing their websites from 2 potential clients calling a month to 4+ calls per DAY for some clients.
- Interviewed and promoted over 507 attorneys nationwide, in practice areas such as:
- DUI / DWI
- Family Law
- Criminal Defense
- Bankruptcy
- Auto Accidents
- Social Security Disability
- Slip & Falls (Premises Liability)
- Real Estate
- Estate Planning / Probate
- Wage and Hour Claims
- Expungements / Post Conviction Relief
Before you decide to invest in your marketing, it makes sense to first request your complimentary, custom, no obligation video website review.
