Guest David Lefton isn't just a well-known Estate Planning attorney, the Ohio State Bar Association President or Past Chair of the ABA GP Solo Division, he's a servant to all.

David's legacy could singularly be tied to any of these but instead he chooses to have it be "service" to his client, peers, and the legal community.

Practicing law wasn't enough. Early in his career he knew he wanted to make an impact rather just being a participant. Meanwhile, being an example to others.

David joins No Law Firm Left Behind to discuss The Service Mindset so others can reach their goals and find more fulfillment from their legal careers.

Too few attorneys understand the value of targeting a client niche.
 A legal niche can be a practice area, demographic or any other segment of a market.
 It’s when an attorney brings together a very narrow focused niche they often become well-known and sought after by their clients as is the case with our guest Deifilia Diaz.
 
 Being an immigrant herself well positions Deifilia to serve her community and has made her the go-to attorney for their legal needs.
 Even as Deifilia provides a much need and fantastic service for her niche clients, she’s equally and rightfully earned a place as a model to other attorneys on the power of creating a niche practice.
 
 We’re happy to have Deifilia join No Law Firm Left Behind this week to talk about how other attorneys can create niches for themselves.

Step-by-Step Business Technology Plan For Your Law Firm
IS IT important to have a technology plan for your law firm, or can you just buy some computers, software, email, and start working?

Your technology is a key factor in determining whether your law firm will succeed or fall to competition.

It's crucial for law firm leaders to create technology plans, just as they do for marketing, finance, human resources, and operations. A technology plan can help your law firm identify the right tools and processes to support your business objectives, improve efficiency, manage risk, and stay competitive.

🔎During this show, Jim shows you the biggest misconceptions on Cyber Liability Insurance coverage and how to avoid them so your law firm is not surprised when you need help the most.
🛑That's what some law firms are finding during a cyber attack at the worst time in their business. The time they need their insurance the most, they are being rejected for coverage.
❓ Why? Because they didn't understand what was required of them at the time they applied or their situations changed over time and no one told them.

IT COMES BY TOTAL SURPRISE. It's one of those things you never think will happen to you because your "IT people have got you covered".

Maybe you just never put much thought to it which makes it a bigger surprise.
Or possibly, no one with IT cybersecurity knowledge has ever discussed it with you.

In any case, your day was already busy enough but now someone pulled the emergency stop lever on the train and it's come to a screeching derailing halt.

This is what your day and weeks will look like after.....

DO THIS “ONE MORE” BEFORE YOU FINISH WORKING TODAY…
A weightlifter’s most important rep is the 11th in a 10 rep set. A runner’s most important training mile in a 3-mile run is the 4th. A dister’s most important calorie is the one they don’t intake.
It’s the “one more” mentality that improves us. 
make one more call or send one more email to a client today. Praise a one more staffer today. Make one more dollar today!
Whatever the “one more” is, that’s the one that will make you better than the competition.

Got a Bon Jovi tune in my head, “Your #lawfirm Needs Bad Medicine. Bad medicine is what I need, whoa.” (bet you sing that all day now)

From Jim Gast SpliceNet Consulting (www.splice.net) CEO:

You and your staff may not like it but let’s face it, this bad medicine may be needed immediately‼️ This WILL solve attorney and staff productivity problems NOW⁉️ It’s for our own well being. It’s this or risk the alternatives.

When my kids were little they hated “yucky medicine” when they were sick. They had a fever, runny nose, cough, an achy body and they needed the “bad” medicine to get better.

Your law firm is no different. If you have a life threatening symptom you need a remedy NOW. That symptom might be lack of focus, lack of productivity or distractions while working remotely so you need medicine “yucky medicine” to solve that problem.

Let’s talk about the “yucky medicine” to save your law firm’s life.

Your staff who #workfromhome could put your firm in jeopardy with unsecured home networks. Drive-by #hackers are constantly searching for unsecured networks. If one of these hackers infiltrates one of your staff's home Wi-Fi, they could have access to all your client data. These overlooked tips on securing your attorneys and staff home Wi-Fi could save your Law Firm from falling victim to hackers.

Is it time to pull back the reins on the pivot firms made to adapt to Work from Home? Evaluate the distinct phases of #WFH: “can we”, “help me”, “secure me”, “keep me” and now “reverse me”.
#legaltech out of necessity was hastily setup at the onset of COVID quarantines but now with #RTW it’s time to assess the continued value.
Great ideas on next moves and how it should relate to your #lawfirm #pivot

Goals should not be random. Goals are meant to improve something and should be based on a measurement of that improvement. The measurement is a metric that indicates incremental success or failure toward the goal. 
If increasing revenue is the goal, increasing client cases is one potential way to meet the bigger goal. To increase client cases increasing client case leads will be necessary and that success can be measured by counting phone rings, website form fills, social media content consumption on the last mile client journey.
Measuring the minor detail of the incremental goal will help you reach the ultimate goal.

Click for info on WVD (https://www.splice.net/windows-virtual-desktop/)
#windowsvirtualdesktop for #lawfirms will make #workfromhome easily morph into #workfromanywhere and firms can stop spending $20K+ for a server that costs $10K+/year to support only because of a couple of legal apps, files/docs and Quickbooks. 
Instead Microsoft Windows Virtual Desktops (“WVD”)in Azure is an excellent choice for firms to save money and a perfect #pivot to enable attorneys and staff flexibility to serve client needs while not being tied to an office desk.
An attorney’s WVD since it’s in the Azure cloud can be easily securely accessed from anywhere with nearly any type of device. And the biggest benefit to the law firm is cost control unlike many of cloud services.

Can a law firm eliminate a network server that’s only needed to run 1-2 applications and just used for storing docs & files while not breaking the bank and giving attorneys/staff a better way to work from home or anywhere? Is #WindowsVirtualDesktop in Azure the answer?
#WVD is put on the spot and on trial for #lawfirms to decide if it can help staff with #wfh but also be the good #legaltech investment. Jim, Dave & Vinny review the pros & cons to help law firm owners decide if it's a good strategy or not.
Our verdict: WVD replaces network servers, has reasonable and predictable costs, supports firm legal applications, and make them securely accessible from virtually any device and any connection type.

🤔If Post Likes, Comments and Shares are your goal
You got it all wrong… 
❓How many of us have created the most awesome post we thought “oh yeah, the world is gonna love this!!!!”

Then we post it all over our social channels and we come back an hour later
...only to see
       no one like it.
       no one commented.
       no one shared it.
       and LinkedIn or Facebook
       algorithms didn’t even put it out there. 

Man that just deflates you like a balloon?🎈

The problem isn’t the algo and it isn’t the platform. 

It’s your motives. 

Glory-hunting is not the reason to contribute and if that’s your motivation, find a new one!💥

I’m hoping for #LinkedInLive to help reach my goal of serving my audiences. Getting turned down twice does hurt but then I remember my “why” and I keep pressing on. 

What’s your “why” for contributing on social media?

💡Each failure brings you closer to the next success.

but quitting…
stops the process altogether.

The secret in business no one ever tells you is its constant up and down emotional ride.

It’s often tougher than raising kids.

You didn’t hang your shingle only to quit. You started your #lawfirms because you wanted to be your own boss and help clients on your terms.

Quitting or not giving it “your all” will only ensure one thing:  certain failure.

💪🏼My son needed a motivation talk (aka a kick in the butt)
He was letting himself down which is far worse than letting me down

He was not performing as well as he could for his football team and I don’t mean on the field.

He’s showing up. He’s running his routes. He’s making great catches. He’s doing his sprints. He’s even improving in strength training. But all just during team practice times. 

🤔When practice is over, he’s done. And then he doesn’t understand why he’s not starting over someone else.

To be elite in anything you do, you gotta put in the extra work. The minimum effort isn’t gonna make him (or you) the best. 

Coaches, bosses and clients do not want “good”. They want the best‼️

You can’t give them the best if you’re not putting in the work to be the best.

‼️LinkedIn bullies exist‼️Surprised too? But no bully can stop me.
John’s comment only fired me up even more to help people💯

I’m sorry his life is such that he needed to resort to bullying and lashing out at me for trying to help others. 

I sorry he didn’t watch the video he criticized. Maybe the message would have helped. 

Nevertheless I will press on with more vim and vigor now knowing there are people like John that don’t know how to just ask for help.

💯Can you name at least 10 milestone to adulthood?
I’m struggling on one right now, leaving for college💔

But sad and proud of him as I’m am, my thoughts go to business. 

Even before we had him, I knew nearly every milestone needed to be an adult.

II knew them cold‼️

What of our business milestones? Do we know all of them cold?

Are they as natural to you as those of your kid’s?

No‼️

If you don’t know them it’s because you didn’t set them…

…or care enough about them💥

So get to it. Make them and never forget them again.

View the livestream here on YouTube. 
many think that IT staff or outsourced computer companies should determine your firm’s security policies.
This is far from what should be. IT should have input and be the mechanism that implements the technology aspects of policies but the firm principals should make the final decisions. 
It takes a specialized consultant (potentially a cyber/tech lawyer) to guide your firm through the process to reach your end policies. 
That consultant should then continually work with your much like a CPA would to regularly evaluate changes and compliances. 
The days of set it and forget it are gone.

🚫Should outsourced IT determine your firm’s security policies?
Only if …

someone specifically trained can review your “risks” based off an actual risk assessment. 

Most IT guys are not trained this way. 

IT should have input and be the mechanism that implements the technology aspects of policies.

Your risk consultant should continually work with your firm much like a CPA would to regularly evaluate changes and compliances.

👁Is it safe to use VPN over public WiFi?

It’s my opinion that you should not use public WiFi.

Instead use your mobile phone as a hotspot.

At least you know it’s a legit WiFi versus a fake WiFi.

💰Email is the mother load to hackers. Don’t send passwords by email.
Bank, credit card statements, financial records, medical records and for goodness sake; your social security number, all should never be sent by regular email.

Plus back and forth replies and forwards only severely increases the number of places that info is stored.

And if the recipient is hacked, you’ll probably never know.

Are you numb to losing? I think I was.
I recently entered a speaking competition and lost.

It had been a long time since I knew, flat out that I had lost to someone. And the loss I had in a contest was a rude awakening - I LOST‼️

No excuses, I got beat. But as I sit here a few days later, I really appreciate the WAKE UP CALL.
I forgot how bad I hated losing and how horrible it felt.

It had such an impact on me that I started thinking, I’ve been losing for a long time and not even realizing or feeling like i had been.

I’m working towards my goals but every time I lose focus, I’m losing and after you lose focus too much, you become anesthetized to losing. The rotten feeling of losing becomes less than even a minor itch. That’s when losing becomes very dangerous.

So here’s your WAKE UP CALL. If you’re losing, STOP IT. Get the feeling back in your gut and GET BACK TO WINNING again.

5 steps to make it easy for clients to do business with you.
Client “touch point experiences” are paramount especially now. 

The experience your client has can be the difference between choosing you or a competing #lawyer or even a recommendation. 

☎️ We forget sometimes that making ourselves available for our clients is how we make money. 

❓Do you ever say to yourself, “man, I wish they’d leave me alone and just let me do my job”?
💡 Remember, we wouldn’t have the job if it wasn’t for them. 

‼️Want to win more clients, make it easy for your clients to do business with you.
