6 Key Reasons to Expand to Employment Law
Employment law filings have grown steadily over the past decade and show no signs of slowing. California’s federal courts continue to see some of the highest volumes of employment-related cases in the country.
Many of your current clients may already face employment issues like wrongful termination, discrimination, and wage disputes. This creates cross-practice opportunities within your existing client base and allows you to serve them in more ways.
Most employment law firms operate small to mid-sized without strong marketing systems. This creates an opportunity for established firms entering the space with a strong advantage from the start.
Wrongful termination and discrimination claims are often handled on a contingency basis. This is a familiar revenue model for many law firm practices already.
State and federal workplace laws keep expanding. Each new rule creates more claims and a larger population of workers in need of representation.
Relying on one practice area makes your firm vulnerable to market and regulatory changes. Employment law adds a second revenue stream with a different risk profile and client base.
