This document discusses lawyers embracing an entrepreneurial approach. It suggests that traditional law practice models are breaking down, forcing lawyers to change. Lawyers are encouraged to define their values, find a niche by serving specific clients, and use modern tools like technology, virtual assistants, and alternative billing to create the practice they want.
