Leaving a firm to start your own practice is a scary proposition. In this episode Oscar and Scott give vital steps you should take that will lead to a successful practice.
1. You must start planning far in advance by thinking about the makeup of your practice (type of practice, type of clients, type of law) and looking at the viability of each possibility.
2. Will you be able to bring in enough business to support your practice?
3. Start setting up your support system of mentors and get a feel for what solo and small practice life is like.
They also talk about how right now might actually be the best time to start a new practice.
