How Do I Build Upon My Existing Foundation in This Discipline?
Once you are committed to a discipline, meaning you have
already certified and are settled in your new pursuit, the challenge becomes
where to go from there. Certainly, this involves building your knowledge base
and skill-set so that you remain competitive and do not grow stagnant. Focusing
your practice in a particular area of specialty is one way to enhance your
credibility as a subject matter expert, build your brand and reputation,
distinguish you from your peers, and generate higher than average fees. This
starts with training and certification (where applicable and available). Specialization
in high demand areas can facilitate gaining recognition in the communities you
serve. But in the end, everything you do to advance your knowledge and standing
can put you in high demand, particularly with attorneys who see you as a more
credible expert.
