Today’s idea, especially for small-firm lawyers, is this: revive your law school study groups. Not literally—your original classmates have long since moved on to other practices and careers. But set up a private study group with between five and 10 other lawyers whose practices overlap, but don’t completely coincide, with yours. They’d be in the same general practice area and the same basic jurisdiction, but their specialties and focuses would differ slightly.
