Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

"Law Should Enable Innovation": From Colombia to the EU with Jorge Barona
Q: What does it mean for law to enable innovation in practice when working with researchers and entrepreneurs?
Law should align with how innovation happens, requiring lawyers to stay current, collaborate with non-lawyers, and present practical, streamlined solutions (like shorter NDAs) to keep pace with research teams.
The Nomad Lawyer Reality and Challenging the Default Path with Ari Mike
Q: What practical steps should junior lawyers take to start building a book of business while staying flexible?
Junior lawyers should focus on building their network early, leverage both in-person connections and online platforms like LinkedIn, and develop soft skills such as sales and communication. Consistency in showing up, doing the work, and nurturing relationships over time is key to becoming a rainmaker who can generate opportunities.
The Nomad Lawyer Reality and Challenging the Default Path with Ari Mike
Q: What are the big misconceptions about remote or nomad lawyers, and what's the reality like at the ground level?
Many think remote lawyers aren't working hard or that it's easy. In reality, it requires intense discipline, the ability to focus anywhere, and strong self-management because there's no office supervision. The reality includes maintaining client results, managing time, and balancing travel with delivering value.
The Nomad Lawyer Reality and Challenging the Default Path with Ari Mike
Q: To start off, could you introduce yourself and walk us through your path from law school to building a remote practice?
I'm Ari Mike, a Digital Nomad Lawyer, originally trained in Canada. After working at a traditional Montreal boutique and weathering COVID layoffs, I shifted to a remote-first, globally distributed practice. The move was driven by a desire for geographic freedom, client management experience, and the appeal of working from anywhere while continuing to develop expertise in corporate and commercial law with crypto and blockchain focus.
Flipping the SEO Funnel, Lead Magnets, and the Power of Podcasting with Steven Schneider
Q: How should a lawyer begin building authority for the long term, beyond just publishing blog posts?
Develop a consistent personal brand coupled with a visible, credible online presence (LinkedIn, testimonials, etc.), and leverage podcast appearances to gain backlinks and networking opportunities that reinforce both the brand and the website's authority.
