Why should you take this course?

Business development is often seen as a talent some lawyers naturally have, and others simply don’t. But in reality, the ability to consistently generate clients is a skill—one that can be taught, practiced, and refined. Without clear, ethical strategies for building a client base, many lawyers experience stalled growth, missed opportunities, and rising pressure from unclear expectations.

This 90-minute session reframes business development as a core element of legal professionalism and introduces five practical habits that support your long-term client generation without compromising billable productivity or professional integrity. You will explore mindset, communication, and time management strategies that make business development more focused, less overwhelming, and more aligned with how legal professionals actually work.

This program is designed for lawyers in the early to mid stages of their careers, as well as firm leaders who support professional development. It will help you move from hesitation and inconsistency to a more confident, structured approach to growing your practice—no sales tricks required.
