Are you a legal professional poised to ascend into a leadership role or contemplating the legacy you'll leave behind? Justia's webinar, "Succession Planning Unlocked: Mastering the Transition From Leadership to Legacy," offers invaluable insights to navigate this pivotal phase of your career.
In our latest webinar, join lawyer Mark Bassingthwaighte as he confronts the realities and reimagines the possibilities of attorney retirement. This isn’t just about paperwork and malpractice coverage, but what it means to step confidently into your next chapter, armed with insight.
Whether you’re contemplating retirement next year or in the next decade, this session is your practical and comprehensive roadmap. We explore the full spectrum of what attorneys face when considering a graceful exit from practice:
- Legal and logistical pitfalls like winding up your law firm, managing risk exposure, and ensuring ongoing malpractice protection.
- Financial readiness — how your economic situation (and unexpected costs) play a crucial role in timing and strategy.
- Health and wellbeing, both now and in the years to come
- Family dynamics and emotional readiness, because leaving the law impacts more than just your calendar — it shifts your identity.
Retirement isn’t an end. It’s a pivot. Maybe you’ll mentor. Maybe you’ll travel. Maybe you’ll finally write that book or take up causes close to your heart. We guide you through the introspective questions that help align your values and interests with the next phase of your life, so your legacy isn’t just the cases you won, but the life you lead after the verdicts are in.
