Profiles of Success Interview with Steve Graves

Please share one of your success stories.

We’ve made a number of spectacular recoveries for clients whose cases have been rejected by other law firms.  In one instance we were able to completely reverse a tax foreclosure sale and recover a client’s home for her.

What was one of the biggest challenges you have faced and how did you overcome it?

Giving full and competent service to a growing clientele while keeping my operation lean enough to let me earn a livelihood.  It’s a continuing challenge I meet by being on constant lookout for new efficiencies that don’t compromise client service.

What piece of advice do you wish someone had given you at the start of your law career?

Every lawyer is a sole practitioner and an entrepreneur.  If you don’t believe it, try building a career in a law firm, large or small, without developing your own clientele.
