This is for new lawyers, or for lawyers who don't have a lot of experience in a practice area. If you've been around a while, see you Monday.
Say you don't know anything about an area of law. Find somebody who you know, and have them walk you through it. If you have a relationship with a client, make sure the clients thinks you're the one doing the work, but give their fee (most or all) to the experienced attorney. The attorney is more likely to help you, might refer you cases to return the favor, and you're going to learn in the meantime without having to pay. Plus, you'll have a happy client, which is always a good thing.

- I am an elder law attorney with my own solo practice. I'm located in central New Jersey but I make house calls. I am in the business of setting the elderly and their caregivers at ease, by making sure they have high-quality health care they can afford, and governmental benefits they're entitled to.
