Are you an attorney who is thinking about owning their own firm? In this podcast episode, Jim and Tyson delve into Jim's personal and professional growth as the head of Hacking Immigration Law.
Jim provides some insight on how he grew his firm to where it is now. In order to have a successful law firm, it is important to invest in yourself and that of the firm. Jim emphasizes the importance of searching for people who have expertise and bring a different type of value to the firm so it can become the best of the best. Investing in yourself involves learning and coming to terms with things you are not good at. For Jim, that was getting comfortable with being confrontational when it is appropriate.
