In this episode I speak with Robert Ingalls who is the Founder and Chief Strategist at LawPods—a company that produces branded podcasts for some of the premier law firms in the world. I have gotten to know Rob over the past several months since LawPods started editing the How I Lawyer Podcast and became a sponsor of the show. If you are interested in lawyers that choose to pivot from the everyday practice of law or if you have ever been curious about why lawyers might want to podcast or how to try it yourself, this is the episode for you. Rob started his career practicing criminal law, civil litigation, and estate planning. But after some time in the trenches he decided to pivot from the formal practice of law to focus on more creative and entrepreneurial pursuits like helping lawyers and law firms create professional podcasts. My conversation with Rob was one of the most fun I have had to date. We discussed his decision to become a lawyer, some of the struggles he had when practicing law, his pivot to working with lawyers that want to podcast, how his legal training has served him well since starting a small business, the power of storytelling and audience for 21st century lawyers, the ways that starting a podcast can help lawyers build networks and communities, and the importance of embracing who you are and what you want to do every day when choosing a professional path.

Robert Ingalls is Tom Fox's guest on this episode of the Innovation in Compliance Podcast. He is the Chief Product Strategist at Law Pods, a podcast for busy attorneys. In this episode, Robert and Tom talk about the power of podcasting as a medium for professionals in legal fields, why it works, and what's in store for the future of podcasting in the legal industry. What Makes Podcasting Work Consumer behavior is shifting, and so are people's learning styles. Nowadays people want to be entertained whilst receiving information; podcasts are a great medium for this, especially for legal professionals who wish to pass on legal expertise to a wider audience. “When you make a podcast you're asking them to press play and keep living their life,” Robert tells Tom. Audio allows people to consume content in a way that is most convenient and accessible to them. Making The Leap Lawyers have had the ability to produce audio content for many years. Tom asks Robert why this was never utilized until recently. “Because they don't need the new thing,” Robert replies, cheekily. A lot of law firms catch up with the trends slowly, and they also hope that the new trends will fizzle out or go away so they don't have to implement them. However, the legal industry is shifting and lawyers and other legal professionals are making the leap into audio content, and picking up on social media a lot faster than they used to. They are noticing that other law firms are doing so as well, and that their clients are reacting to it. Law firms are now understanding that consumer culture is shifting and taking necessary measures to stay relevant. The Power of Storytelling The easiest way to attract someone to your content is via interesting and authentic stories that are also a little informal. “Be a little more informal… relax yourself and tell [your listeners] what you would want to tell them in that kind of [cocktail party] environment and pepper in some stories,” Robert advises Tom and the listening audience. The podcast is a unique area to use your voice to make a connection with someone else. When storytelling attracts your audience, it encourages them to come back, which in turn motivates them to share your content. What's Next In the near future, there will be a period of concentrated growth. People will be able to ask legal questions via their digital assistants and get specific answers from lawyers, that are segmented audio clips from podcasts. Podcasting will no longer be considered something that is a fad to the legal industry but a useful tool. Resources Robert Ingalls | LinkedIn | Twitter Law Pods

We've all seen the way that technology has affected law practices throughout this pandemic, introducing everything from remote workplaces to video conference hearings. How can you use online tools to maintain interpersonal connections and important relationships as the ways we interact with one another shift? No matter your practice area or the size of your firm, this past year has made it clear that it's time to rethink the way we connect with clients, colleagues, and employees. In this episode, host Robert Ingalls talks with lawyer, author, speaker, and professional mentor Frank Ramos about the importance of keeping relationships front and center in both business and life. Frank explains why these connections are more important now than ever. He shares how lawyers can harness the power of platforms like LinkedIn for networking and marketing, and he offers advice for building a habit that will never leave you at a loss for fresh content. Even with the power of online tools to kickstart new connections, Frank says that ultimately the best relationships are built offline. “Maybe you send more personal letters and emails or make more phone calls,” says Frank. “But you really have to rethink how you're going to stay in touch with people because you want to stay front of mind.”
Did you take a leap in your law career in the past year, or have you been wondering whether the middle of a global pandemic is the right time to make a big change? Whether your firm is just getting started or you're looking to start afresh in the new year, you can take steps in the right direction by keeping your eyes and ears open to the realities of a changing business landscape. In this episode, host Robert Ingalls sits down with friend and business litigator Kyle J. Nutt to discuss his experience of opening his law firm just weeks before COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic. Kyle shares how he and his business partner relied on good client relationships and a strong network to get the firm off the ground, and how he has turned to technology, such as video conferencing and online reviews to keep their work on track. From conducting business remotely to staying connected with clients and colleagues, Kyle reveals how staying flexible in the firm's first year has set them up for success down the line. “Ultimately, if you've got something that under normal circumstances would be a good venture that you have strong feelings about going out on your own,” says Kyle, “My advice is: Go for it. But do so cautiously and with a good appreciation of the changing world around us.”

The last two months have seen seismic shifts in the world, severely impacting not only day-to-day life but how firms are practicing law. This new podcast from https://lawpods.com/ (Lawpods), Law in the Time of Coronavirus, is a resource to help lawyers navigate the current storm and keep their firms running smoothly and profitably. In each episode, we're going to be featuring experts, including managing partners, firm managers, marketers, and other experts from the legal field, to shed some light on how this crisis is affecting them and the strategic steps they're taking to stay in control. In this inaugural episode, host Robert Ingalls speaks with divorce and family law attorney Tom Petrelli of https://www.petrellilaw.com/ (Petrelli Previtera) on how his firm has handled the transition to a virtual workspace. While Tom has been utilizing cloud-based solutions and other remote-friendly tools prior to the Coronavirus crisis, Tom says the pandemic has helped him and his team identify gaps in their preparedness strategy. Tom reveals the various tools, services, and workflows that his firm is employing to provide remote work solutions to the entire team. These include apps for project management, business intelligence, communication, and secure document storage. Additionally, he shares risk mitigation techniques to combat risks associated with using technology, particularly related to data security and privacy. Tom also provides tips on how to remotely manage staff, stressing the importance of regular and productive meetings as well as maintaining consistent client communication. Petrelli Previtera is committed to providing new, existing, and former clients with the help, support, and guidance they may need, especially those who are facing increasingly demanding challenges. Using this time to focus on community building and taking care of employees is a long-term strategy that works for everyone. For Tom, it's necessary to have realistic expectations when it comes to working remotely during the pandemic. Tom's parting advice is to accept that you're unlikely to accomplish as much as you're accustomed to in the office, and to take things day-by-day.
