The new Knowledge Center allows you to:
The American Association for Justice (AAJ) is holding its 2023 Annual Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from July 14-18. This year's convention, entitled “Real Justice Real Results,” gives lawyers the opportunity to participate in Continuing Legal Education Programs, network with other attorneys, and discuss the changes in the legal field.
Learning is a lifelong process, but it shouldn’t take a lifetime to become successful in the legal field. Schools teach the basics and prepare you to pass exams, but many graduates feel lost and unsure of how to navigate the day-to-day reality of being part of the legal community. Joining a firm can provide additional experience, but the work often dictates the direction of your learning–not your interests. Left on your own, trial and error is often the way we learn, and while trying new tactics, picking yourself back up after a failure, and trying a new approach is effective, it can also take time and potentially damage your trajectory.
One of Metwork’s most powerful functions is your ability to curate strong legal networks of trusted lawyers for teams, referral networks, mentorship, and community empowerment. Having your “Metwork” allows you to expand your practice, quickly send referrals, and define your legal journey.
After joining Metwork, your first inclination might be to hop into the Network section and search for new lawyers to bring into your Metwork. That's a great idea, but before you add everyone, we’ve put together three tips for creating a strong, trusted legal network that opens limitless possibilities for you and your legal career.
With a world of lawyers at your fingertips, adding your core group might not be your first thought, but it should be. We encourage every new Metwork user to add the top five colleagues they trust to their network.
If they aren’t part of Metwork yet, you can ask them to join from within the software:
Let’s be honest; giving and receiving feedback is not always a fun experience. Many people are cautious about it–they don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings or feel the advice would be unwanted. However, those concerns shouldn’t dissuade you from giving feedback.
A recent report shows that 52% of consumers hired a lawyer through a recommendation, and 21% of those recommendations came from other attorneys1. That breaks down to 1 in 5 people choosing their lawyer based on another lawyer’s guidance.
We’re traveling! Virtually that is.
On May 12th, Metwork co-founder, Tom Metier, is bringing his expertise to the Iowa Association for Justice (IAJ) Members Only Seminar in West Des Moines.
