Beginning tomorrow (2/9), I’ll be blogging through a multi-week series on how to grow a probate practice.
Whether you are just starting out as a lawyer, you are looking to branch out into a new practice area, or you are a seasoned probate attorney looking for a few tips to increase your business, I plan to share practical insights on how you can grow a probate practice.
About three years ago I began to focus my practice on probate and trust administrations (and related tax returns). Since then, I’ve worked on nearly 80 such cases and consulted with attorneys on even more.
I’m going to tell you how I did it.
I mainly have in mind how to grow a Minnesota probate practice, but generally these tips will help an attorney in any state.
At this point, I plan on publishing the following successive posts on Tuesdays (one per week), but I may adjust this as I go:
- Don’t Start Until You Have These Tools
- How to Make the Phone Ring with Business
- You Must Become an Expert (and How to Become One)
- Forget Paralegals (for now)
- Develop a Probate Attorney Network
Some of the posts may be a bit controversial. That’s ok. If you have a different opinion, join the conversation in the comments and perhaps everyone will get more out of it.
If you don’t already receive updates to this blog automatically, this is a good time to start. There are two ways to get updates automatically. If you have a feed reader, subscribe to this blog’s feed by clicking here (or entering http://mnestatelaw.com/feed/ in your feed reader).
The other way is to get updates by email. You can do so by clicking here. I never spam you, never give out your email address, and you can easily unsubscribe to stop receiving the emails anytime you want. If you do this option, be sure to watch for a confirmation email that will get sent to you before you are fully subscribed. Sometimes this gets caught in people’s spam filters. If you don’t respond to the confirmation email, you won’t be subscribed. The emails come at about 5:00 p.m. on days when new posts appear.
So get signed up so you don’t miss anything and we’ll start tomorrow…

Boyd, you are one generous guy! I’ll will try to be a good student! Let me know if there’s any local (MN) help I can provide. I am definitely looking forward to your series.
