When setting out on your own and creating your startup law firm, there seems to be an infinite number of administrative questions that need to be answered: where are you going to have an office? Are you even going to have an office, or is a home-office a better set-up for your practice? How will you set up the phones? How much does malpractice insurance cost and what provider should you choose?
The list goes on and on because there is a plethora of administrative tasks you will now have to undertake to keep your business going. You become your own billing clerk, receivables clerk, office manager, bookkeeper and payroll clerk, just to mention a few.
With the advantages of being your own boss comes the responsibility for the entire operation and addressing the administrative concerns. Realistically, you should plan on around 800 hours of administrative work per year if you are a sole proprietor with no secretary. You may be able to cut that number down to about 300 hours if you hire a full-time secretary.
In addition to that, you will have to spend additional time engaged in marketing your startup law firm. One way to manage this is to create a website for your startup law firm and utilize Search Engine Optimization and other internet marketing techniques to advertise your law firm for you.
Starting your own firm can be an exciting adventure. Purchasing a professional website design is one of the best marketing decisions your firm can make. Potential clients expect an established law firm to have a professional website.
