Law new is a term that refers to the idea of changing how legal services are provided to clients. This can mean working with underserved communities, finding ways to reach out to clients or creating strategies that have not been part of traditional legal practice in the past. Essentially, it is all about doing things differently to improve client service while simultaneously growing and expanding the legal firm’s overall business. This is a concept that all firms should pay attention to and understand how to use to their advantage.
Laws are often created by legislative bodies, such as Congress. A bill is a proposed law that is debated and changed before it becomes an official rule or statute. In order for a bill to become a law, it must be passed by both houses of Congress. Interested parties can suggest changes to existing laws, and bills are also often suggested by members of Congress themselves. Once a law is proposed, it is assigned to a committee for research and discussion. The committee report that is written for each bill describes the purpose of the law, its scope and explains why it is being recommended for approval.
As the world of legal practice evolves, it is important that lawyers continue to innovate and think outside of the box when it comes to providing legal services to clients. For some, this may mean embracing technology or using nontraditional fee structures. For others, it may mean exploring new forms of practice or taking on niche areas of the law that can be delivered more efficiently while serving as a secondary focus for the firm’s primary legal efforts.
