Helen & Holly (The LinkedIn Academy For Lawyers)

One sentence changed the course of my life. No.......it wasn't a patent claim. Could have been. Over 20 years ago, when facing my first set of professional exams my dream of becoming a patent attorney was almost derailed by self-doubt. Then my supervising Partner uttered one sentence that changed everything: ?"??????????, ?????? ?? ???????????? ?????? ?????? ???????????? ?????? ???????????????? ???? ????." ? That simple sentence made me feel less alone. Reminded me I wasn’t without support. It was the spark I needed to push through. Great leaders don’t just manage they empower, uplift, and create a space where everyone thrives. Sometimes, all it takes is one sentence. Do you have a sentence that helps you when things feel overwhelming?

LinkedIn company pages are DEAD Here's the brutal truth: We used to think company pages were just there for the "shop window effect". But then, we put some attention into our own company page. The results were WILD. Hundreds of likes on company posts. Hundreds of new followers within just 1 week (without inviting anyone to the page) We think law firms are missing a trick. Find out why in our LinkedIn Live next Wednesday 5th December, 1pm UK time. Attend below.

The secret to podcast growth? It isn't great conversations You grow a podcast by mastering copywriting. The true ART of persuasion. Sound backwards? Here's the deal: I believe great copywriting is the KEY to an impactful podcast. Here's how you use copywriting in podcasting: 1. Irresistible titles Make your titles stand out with power words that spark curiosity. 2. Turn posts into listener magnets Frame your posts to address pain points. Persuade them to listen. 3. Episode descriptions Focus on the value your episode offers and speak to emotions. 4. Hook listeners with strong intros Start with a question or intriguing fact to keep listeners hooked. 5. Craft attention grabbing questions Spark curiosity, make them WANT to listen. You master copywriting? You've mastered the art of storytelling, persuasion & tapping into emotion. That's what keeps attention. Would you agree?

People overcomplicate giving value. But it's key to gaining clients in law. Here’s the truth: Giving value on LinkedIn isn’t about giving away too much. It’s about consistency. Instead of hunting for tricks or hacks. Focus on showing up. Understand who you’re serving and meet them where they are. Value isn’t measured by the flashiest post or the most likes. It’s about the impact you have over time. The people who consistently add value, who are genuinely engaged, are the ones who make a REAL difference. Want to make an impact? Stop overcomplicating it. Just show up. Keep giving. And the results will come. Still have doubts?

It’s great when you get career advice that challenges you. A fantastic firm-wide session this morning from Helen Pamely on career progression. Not wanting to fail might be a big thing, but turning it all into an experiment? That’s better!

Networking is a skill, not just instinct. So how do you master it? Many lawyers struggle with networking. Trying to identify who’s worth their time and who’s stuck in the past. It’s tempting to rely on instinct, hoping to spot the "forward-thinkers" on your first interaction. But here’s the truth: Building a meaningful network isn’t about snap judgments. It’s about this: Patience Curiosity Being strategic. Get past the surface. One meeting won’t reveal everything. People can project what you want to see. But their true mindset unfolds over time. Be curious. Ask genuine questions. Peel back the layers. Embrace authenticity. Networking is a two-way street. Show up as yourself to build trust & connections. Networking isn’t instinct. It’s a process. And when you approach it with intention? You’ll not only find forward-thinkers, But also build relationships that help you grow. What’s your take on networking: instinct or strategy?

Nothing prepares you for the moment you meet your child for the first time. Pure chaos, emotion and awe, all rolled into one unforgettable experience. Last week, we welcomed our little Luca into the world. Our hectic 3-day hospital stay was filled with lessons I’ll carry with me forever. Here’s what I learned: 1?? Men are fragile. Women are badass. I watched my wife push through challenges most men (myself included) could never handle. Women's strength and resilience are humbling. Never underestimate that. 2?? Nurses are the real MVPs. I walked out with a new respect for everyone in the medical field. But the nurses - oh man! My hats off to you, I could never do what you do. 3?? Dads, your role matters. Labor is no spectator sport. If you think you'll just sit there and do nothing, think again! Supporting your wife during those frenzied moments makes you realize just how active a role fathers play. Play your part! 4?? It takes a village. Over 30 healthcare professionals contributed to bringing Luca safely into this world, and their teamwork was nothing short of amazing. I kept wondering how babies were born in the old days. How on earth did they manage it? Bonus: Be nice to your in-laws! Grandparents are a cheat code. Their wisdom, support, and love make all the difference when it matters most. What’s one thing you wish you knew before bringing your baby home? -- #DigitalNomadFather ;) #DigitalNomadLawyer #NewDad #Fathers #NewBorn

Landing high-value clients is not hard. (we can't believe law hasn't caught on.) Partners spend their lives jet-setting to get in the "right room" with ideal clients. But the "RIGHT room" is already right in front of your nose. Balancing endless billables and managing teams while trying to squeeze in traditional networking. It's outdated. LinkedIn? That’s where the magic happens. Those who don't take advantage or don't know how are massively missing out. We used to chase clients. Now, they come to us. Why? Simple. LinkedIn does the heavy lifting for you. It magnetises your ideal clients while you focus on your work and life. Your brand is visible 24/7, building trust and relationships before they even reach out. By the time they do. You've already won. Stop wasting time and start owning LinkedIn. We strongly believe those who don't will fall behind. Do you agree?
