1 - Become a thought leader

Speaking engagements, interviews, and media appearances all boost your profile. Once the public recognizes you as an expert in your field, getting new clients becomes much easier.

2 - Keep networking

Your networking efforts shouldn’t be intermittent. Unless you are swamped in work for the foreseeable future, you should always be attending events and meeting other business leaders. Consistency is vital to ensure a steady flow of clients.

3 - Ask for referrals

Referrals from former clients are a huge source of new clients for lawyers. However, one mistake lawyers often make is waiting for referrals to happen on their own. Clients will indeed refer people to you unprompted, but if you tell former clients that you would welcome referrals and what type of work you’re looking for, your chances of getting them will significantly increase.

4 - Become a blogger

Maintaining a strong digital presence is another great way to gain public recognition. If your blog is the first thing that shows up when a potential client looks for a solution, the chances of said client hiring you are much higher.

5 - Let your clients know what you want

The value of referrals can't be overstated. You want former clients to refer your firm to new ones, and you should let your clients know that. Tell them your firm is open for business and what kind of work you are looking for. Satisfied clients will be much more likely to help you if they know exactly how they can make you happy.
