In the mid-1990s, after working at various insurance defense firms for approximately 5 years, he joined his late father, Philip, to form <a href="http://www.karlaw.com">Karlin &amp; Karlin</a>. Marc’s father was a certified immigration specialist, and he practiced in that field for most of his career. </p><p>When he and Marc worked together, Philip handled immigration, and Marc handled all the non-immigration work. When his father died in 2017, he assumed his immigration practice, which continues to this day. Marc’s dad died three days after they had moved out of their office of 23 years to their current location. Their main office is in Glendale, CA, which is adjacent to the Los Angeles city limits. In the summer of 2020, they opened a satellite office 50 miles to the east, in Corona, which is in Riverside County, halfway between Los Angeles and Palm Springs. </p><p><br /></p><p>4:40 money in files</p><p>8:00 learning as you go</p><p>11:37 strategize</p><p>13:29 two different practice areas</p><p>15:24 bottlenecks</p><p>19:32 losing your law partner</p><p>22:50 delegation</p><p>Jim’s Hack: Check out <a href="https://amzn.to/3Hsp7EE">The Everyday Hero Manifesto</a> by Robin Sharma.</p><p><br /></p><p>Marc’s Tip: During anxious or worrisome times, think back to the clients you’ve helped and what they’ve told you.
