He opens up about the early challenges he faced moving to a new country, recalling how he had to learn a new language and adjust to a different culture, reflects on the close bond he shares with his family, forged by being the only realities living in Australia, recalls how him and his twin brother took a term of during year 10 to work full-time to support their parents, who were working 12-hour days, seven days a week, and explains how these experiences taught him independence and important lessons about life.

The Boutique Lawyer Show: How to build a law firm while raising a family 43:53

منذ 13 يومًا43:53

43:53

For many parents in the legal profession, the idea of advancing their careers by opening a law firm can feel daunting or unattainable. But Marial Lewis offers a different perspective – demonstrating that it’s possible to successfully juggle the demands of parenthood while building a thriving legal practice. Speaking on a recent episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Grace Robbie speaks with Marial Lewis, the principal solicitor and founder of Crossover Law Group, about her journey launching a law firm just eight months after having her first child, reflects on the inspiration and motivation behind taking such a bold step during a demanding time in her life, sharing how limited support in traditional legal environments compounded by the onset of COVID-19 prompted her to carve her own path, and opens up about the additional challenges of balancing firm ownership with motherhood, having since welcomed two more children. Lewis talks about the strategies and systems she has put in place to juggle the demands of motherhood alongside running a law firm, explains how having a coach should be something that even the best in the game should do, shares the importance of communicating with clients boundaries when it comes to communication and when to respond, and reflects on a time she picked up and worked on a case 24 hours after having her second child. She also reflects on the deeply personal and meaningful nature of working in immigration law, challenges the notion that those navigating parenthood should hesitate to start a firm or advance their legal careers, discusses why she believes many firm owners and partners are struggling in silence, considers how the lessons she’s learnt from both parenting and firm ownership have influenced her approach to each, and offers thoughtful advice to aspiring lawyers who hope to grow their families while pursuing their professional goals.

Protégé: Breaking away from traditional legal careers 42:17

منذ 16 يومًا42:17

42:17

While many lawyers feel that the only “right” career path is to remain in a large law firm for life, Mia Madafferi emphasises the importance of recognising that pivoting into innovative legal careers is not only possible but also often deeply rewarding. Speaking on a recent episode of the Protégé Podcast, host Grace Robbie speaks with Mia Madafferi, the founder of Grey Rock Consulting, who reflects on the early stages of her legal career at Herbert Smith Freehills, recalls how a role-play exercise at a primary school excursion – acting as New Kelly’s lawyer – first sparked her interest in litigation, discusses what it was like to transition straight from university into a major law firm, and what ultimately inspired her move from private practice to an in-house legal role. Madafferi shares that her decision to launch her own consulting practice stemmed from a personal drive to pursue something different, reflects on the challenges many lawyers and individuals face when dealing with people who exhibit “high-conflict” personalities, and discusses how rewarding it is to support those who feel overwhelmed or unsure of how to navigate such difficult dynamics. She also highlights the importance of lawyers recognising their ability to pivot away from traditional career paths and apply their legal skills in innovative and non-traditional ways, ponders on whether this mindset is still relatively uncommon or becoming more widely accepted, underscores the need for universities to start thinking “outside the box” in how they educate law students to better support diverse legal career opportunities, and offers advice to students who may feel daunted by the idea of going against the status quo and who are unsure about pursuing a conventional legal career.…

Believing that you must be available 24/7, that money brings happiness, and that asking for help is a sign of weakness are just some of the common myths lawyers have come to accept as truth. Here, John Kormanik challenges these misconceptions and offers practical advice on what to believe – and do – instead. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Podcast, host Grace Robbie speaks with John Kormanik, a former trial lawyer turned certified professional coach for lawyers, about his early career in the healthcare system, how his desire to serve and support others led him to pursue law, his experience advising clients on death row, and what ultimately prompted him to step away from legal practice after 25 years. Kormanik reflects on the common traits of lawyers who seek professional coaching and explores the personal and professional benefits they can gain from working with a coach. He also outlines the key challenges currently facing the legal profession and debunks five common myths he has identified about what it means to be a lawyer, including the belief that success requires total devotion to work, that lawyers must always be busy, and that greater happiness comes with a higher income.
