Law is an area of practice that can change rapidly, requiring lawyers to find innovative ways to serve clients and keep their firms competitive. One type of approach that has emerged in recent years is called “new law,” which focuses on creating different ways to provide legal services than are traditionally found in a firm’s standard practice. Often, this involves working with underserved communities or creating strategies that focus on technology rather than process. It can also mean employing staffers that are not on the partner track or offering different fee structures.

New law practices can be a valuable addition to any law firm’s strategy, but they must be embraced and carefully implemented for them to succeed. For most firms, this means making a clear plan of how to utilize new law techniques without impacting other areas of legal practice that may be the primary focus of the company. Ultimately, the success of this type of legal practice depends on how effectively it can generate revenue and client satisfaction.
