Marketing Hot Spots for Litigators

By Larry Bodine, Esq.

Now is the time for a litigator to capture bet-the-company patent, class action and stock option backdating cases from corporate clients, especially if you are familiar with the federal rules on e-discovery. We'll be discussing these and other points on Thursday -- tomorrow -- during our Business Development Webinar for Litigators. 

A study by the Texas mega-firm Fulbright & Jaworski. Their study offers litigators a roadmap to build their practices.

• Getting on a company’s approved counsel list is a gold mine, and solves the bane of litigators – one-shot cases – with a steady stream of legal work.
• Business clients are better than consumer clients, because businesses have recurring legal needs. 
•  A litigator’s happy hunting grounds for patent lawsuits are companies in the manufacturing, retail/wholesale and technology/communications industries.

This work is actually obtainable – regardless of how large the company or how small your law firm is.  According to research, 61% of corporations in 2006 said they fired their primary law firm within the previous 18 months. This shows there are openings for new law firms to capture the work.  There is also a continuing trend for corporations to hire small, specialized litigation boutiques – and even plaintiff’s lawyers – to handle their high-stakes litigation.

Join us this Thursday -- that's tomorrow -- for our

Marketing expert Michael G. Cummings and I have helped litigators at dozens of firms keep their caseload steady -- and growing.  In one case, they helped a litigator at a trial boutique increase her revenue to the firm from $200,000 per year to $2.5 million in one year!  She simply followed their advice, which includes the following.
