Are you an attorney who is just starting out or looking to acquire their own firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson speaks with Thomas Moskal, a criminal defense attorney and former chief deputy district attorney. Thomas shares his journey from prosecution to private practice and the challenges of starting his own practice.

Thomas shares his insights on the difficult aspects of starting a practice and things to understand in order to prosper as a law firm owner. Going solo without experience or knowledge in how to practice or litigate is a huge issue. If someone only has book knowledge but doesn't know how to represent a client or how to communicate with a client, it can cause major problems for success. It is important to gain this skill either in law school or through working with more senior lawyers. This will allow you to gain the necessary skills and experience needed to run your own firm.

Thomas speaks to the importance of understanding your value as a lawyer. Value is tied to how good you are as an attorney. If you are experienced and have consistent wins, you will charge more while newer attorneys may charge less so they can get clients. You need to be good at your craft to charge a fair price as well as know your worth and what you bring to the table.
