"From Lawyer to Leader" w/ Bill Farias 222
Summary
<p>This week on the show we have Bill Farias, founder of Farias Family Law, LLC in Fall River, MA. His firm focuses on family law, mainly divorce and child custody cases. Bill began his legal career as a prosecutor with a goal to become a top criminal defense attorney. However, after a few years doing criminal law, he shifted his focus to family law. Bill believes in the importance of constantly striving to improve personal well-being. He learned a valuable lesson in law school when burning the candle at both ends and neglecting his personal health resulted in his having to take time off to recover. He’s learned that prioritizing physical and mental health will make you happier, healthier, and a more effective professional and leader. Bill has shifted his focus from being a lawyer to being an effective business leader and is working on growing his family law practice.</p><p>In this week’s episode:</p><ul><li>Competing for a living</li><li>3 phases of being a firm owner</li><li>Prepping for a downturn</li></ul><p>Jim’s Hack: Mark Schaeffer books, great for anyone looking to get into more content marketing or to develop their voice. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MUVMPQP/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B01MUVMPQP&linkCode=as2&tag=maximumlawyer-20&linkId=0cbc39d4cbf48948f4b19eee73e4d53c"><em> Known,</em></a><em> </em><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MSJF3P9/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B07MSJF3P9&linkCode=as2&tag=maximumlawyer-20&linkId=d227c6637aced267a0efe336d0ae4179"><em> Marketing Rebellion</em></a>, and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ULS1C26/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00ULS1C26&linkCode=as2&tag=maximumlawyer-20&linkId=cc08f687f0d47d8ed4802c340844ddf3"><em> The Content Code</em></a>.</p><p>Tyson’s Tip: PI lawyers may already know about this, but there's something called Case Analysis, and they've been doing free webinars for the last month and I've just been bingeing on those.
