Attorney Sales Positions (Client Acquisition)
“Sales” is not a dirty word in the practice of law.
“Sales Attorney” vs. “Fab 5 Lawyer”
JC Law does things a little differently! Our handshake with the community is our ultimate priority but how we do that is just as important. The practice of law is a privilege in this country and how we bring new clients on board is super important.
Some lawyers who have a natural “knack” and ability to talk to prospective clients really get to the base of their issue and begin to work towards solving their legal issues.
JC law believes lawyers with the drive and inclination to help bring on new cases are an asset to the community and the firm they are working for. It helps the community “work through” finding a proper lawyer or firm to assist them with walking through the legal system — no matter how large or small their issues may be.
JC law cultivates this process by allowing lawyers who may not want to practice full-time or not all at, but gives them the ability to counsel, advise, and acquire new clients that we can help. So, whether it is a situation where you may want to practice part-time and focus on new consultations, or you simply want to focus on full or part-time sales as a lawyer and not practice, JC Law has a career path for you!
We have a fantastic sales team broken up into two basic parts:
- Fab 5 practicing lawyers who focus primarily on the practice of law but also wear the hat of a “sales lawyer” part-time.
- Full or part-time sales lawyers who only focus on consultations and acquiring new matters that JC Law can help.
Many lawyers are tired of the administrative work that it takes to run their own practice or work within a firm. Our sales lawyer process can give you flexibility and inclination to stay in the practice of law but not have to focus on the case itself after the case is acquired. It’s a fantastic method to wind up a career or start a career to learn sales skills.
JC Law has an excellent acquisition structure for rewarding attorneys and also teaching lawyers how to be successful at this type of practice!
This is a new thought process that we believe will enhance the “law firm” relationship with the community!
