Michael Gangadeen is a successful attorney in New York State. A graduate of Hofstra University and St. John’s University School of Law, Michael Gangadeen became licensed to practice law in New York State in 1995. From 1995 to 2000, Michael Gangadeen worked as an attorney at State Farm Insurance Company. In 2000, Michael Gangadeen made the strategic decision to form his own law firm, Gangadeen & Associates, in Ozone Park, New York. Michael Gangadeen has reached success by advocating for his clients, earning millions of dollars in personal injury awards. With the following tips from Michael Gangadeen, burgeoning lawyers can take steps toward opening their own practices and creating successful names for themselves. - Work as a Clerk: Working as a clerk for a small law firm during law school will provide any new lawyer with valuable experience both in how to practice law and in how to run a law firm. While law school teaches you how to be a lawyer, a practical job or internship will allow attainment of hands-on knowledge and business experience.
- Manage Your Budget: One of the most important aspects to consider when forming a law firm is budget. Do not overspend; as long as your office is clean, organized, and professional, clients will be satisfied and confident in your capabilities.
- Take Any Experience: A new lawyer, especially one investing a large amount of money in his or her own law practice, should be willing to take any cases that are available. Court appointed criminal and juvenile law cases are not well paid, but they do provide excellent experience and will allow you to build a repertoire of success.
- Utilize the Internet: In the digital age, having an accessible, user-friendly website is key to the success of any new business. Set up a simple website for your law firm to make yourself available via Internet search engines. The website should have a URL that is easy to remember, as well as biographies and photographs for all associates. Your website should also include accurate contact information and list the areas in which you have expertise.
- Declare a Specialty: Finally, it is important to declare a specialty or a group of specialties for your law firm. Attempting to practice law across a variety of areas will leave you without expertise in any given practice area. Specializing in two to three practice areas will allow your clients to feel confident in your skills.
With these tips from top trial attorney Michael Gangadeen, any lawyer can begin his or her path toward opening a law firm. http://www.wikihow.com/Start-a-Law-Practice-in-the-U.S http://lawyerist.com/how-much-it-really-costs-to-start-a-law-firm/
