When I was a young lawyer, I rarely read fiction. Instead, I read books and articles that I thought would help me become a better lawyer and more valuable to clients.
While I read a lot of fiction today, I still enjoy learning new ideas about client development and people skills.
I am often am asked what my favorite blogs and podcasts are on those subjects, so I thought I would share some of them with you.
