Say "No" to Clients That Aren't Your Ideal Clients
When a case ends by settlement or trial, most civil trial lawyers enjoy their more relaxed schedule - for a while. It's easy to quickly begin worrying about getting your next case. During this period, it's important to have a clear intention about who your ideal client is, what your ideal case is, and what your ideal caseload is. You have a limited amount of time to handle your active cases. Now that you have some space, keep the opening available until the ideal client and case come along. If you take a marginal client or case, you won't have the space later on when the ideal client and case appear. Be strong. Say no to clients that aren't your ideal clients.

Elder Abuse Mandatory Reporter Immunity
Welcome to my blog!
How Extensive is the Immunity Given to Elder Abuse Mandatory Reporters?
California law gives elder abuse mandatory reporters the protection of immunity from liability. But what happens if a mandatory reporter allegedly makes a false report? Last month, the Sixth District Court of Appeal published the case of Valero v. Spread Your Wings, LLC (2023) _ Cal.App.5th _ , 2023 WL 1858882 addressing this issue. Subscribers to my publication California Case Summaries™ only need to read my one-paragraph summary of this new case to know what they decided.

California Case Summaries™
Know the New Cases to Win Your Cases
Last year California courts published 472 new civil cases and many of them significantly changed California law. California civil attorneys need to know about these new cases, but it has historically been hard to keep up because of the number of new cases, the fact that many cases are 50-100 pages long, and because California courts also publish many new cases in the areas of criminal law, juvenile law and family now.

I prepare one-paragraph summaries, that can be read in 2 minutes and are organized by legal topic, so California lawyers can easily know the new case law to work up their active cases better, get bigger settlements, and win more summary judgments and trials to make more money.
