Ernie Svenson: Hey everyone, I want to welcome you to this first episode of Law Firm Autopilot. This is a podcast for lawyers who want to find a better way of practicing law. This podcast is specifically focused on solo lawyers or ones who practice in small law firms.

Remember…whenever you’re ready to start making your practice easier to manage, you can download the Solo & Small Firm Lawyers’ Guide to Working Smarter (and make your practice more automated, more virtual —and less dependent on you doing all the work and making all the decisions).

Oh, and if you want ongoing guidance with improving your practice check out the Co-Pilot Mastermind program.

BTW, I’d love to hear your questions or get feedback (if you want to record your thoughts using this cool tool).

Also, you might want to download my free Guide to Working Smarter in the Digital Age (to help you optimize your practice —so you start working less and relaxing more).
And if you want to make improvements faster, check out my Working Smarter course.
