about the magazine

For Lawyers Only is an ad-free quarterly business development magazine for enterprising lawyers. Each issue has 4 primary sections: (1) a main story setting forth best practices and thought leadership on a topic, (2) a “how to” tip explaining the process for implementing a best practice, (3) announcements of sales-related events and discounts, and (4) a motivational piece that often includes a way to measure progress towards your business development goals.

Also included within one of the above sections is a companion podcast episode that sheds additional light on the topic from a unique angle. Finally, there’s our newest addition: a Lifestyle piece where we engage with artists on topics such as zen office spaces, business fashion, travel, business entertaining, community impact, and the like. The lifestyle piece generally spills over to our LinkedIn page, allowing our readers to interact with our creative partners.
