I thought it would be fun to attach a link to photos of my house (just took photos this morning). I also attached my 2017 P&L so far (by month). My biggest year so far: http://imgur.com/a/UiveU

I just started writing a book on small business entrepreneurship. I am not sure how long it will take to finish but I anticipate a few months at least. It will be a bit more broad than just solo practice. However, most of my examples will come from my experience building a law firm.

Let me know what questions you have or if you want different angles/photos of my house.

Finally, I plan on having a cooking party at my house in June and may open my doors to xoxo posters from LA. If you are interested please e-mail me at calishitlawguru@gmail.com.

Steady income because I have so many files. I am up to about 220-240 right now. My 850k class action settlement got final approval this year, so one of those months had a big hit of fees. I also settled a couple 250k policy limits cases this year too.

I have a wrongful death going to mediation on June 13 in Orange County. 1.3 million is on the table right now. Trying to get 2 million. That will be my biggest case in my career so far.

I have a full time paralegal and a few attorneys that do contract work for me. I handle most of the cases myself (I am a workaholic really). I also associate in friends on a bunch of cases and make them do all the work while I get 50% of the fees. Usually the disputed liability cases that need to be litigated but have a small/medium upside.

Well mostly just talking to lots of people. I wasn't particularly well connected to start. Came from a middle class Jewish family in the San Fernando Valley. Dad was a radiologist and mom didn't work after I was born. My family actually sends me barely any cases. Friends send me a lot though. I was always pretty popular in school.

Almost the same amount of time as the ones that settle for 100K. It's really a system. Once I put it into my system all the cases are about the same amount of work. The only exception is unusual or very large cases. Deaths, surgery cases, etc usually have to be litigated and worked up a lot more because insurance companies usually don't hand over 500k just because someone had surgery. But the run of the mill 100k 3 epidural case isn't much more work than the 15k chiro with ortho consult case.

Most of the time. Some people say ortho should be the one referring to MRIs but I don't notice any difference in settlement value when that happens. I use two MRI facilities mostly (and they have multiple offices in Los Angeles). One my friend from high school owns. The other my chiro went to high school with and now we are good friends.

I take 1-2 international vacations a year. This year I did New Zealand. I did the Philippines, France, Belgium, and Holland last year. I usually leave on a friday night and come back the next Sunday. So I only miss a week. I have Verizon and they have something called travel pass. My phone works in like 100 countries for $10/day. I usually work 2 hours a day on vacation and answer my cell. My entire office is paperless and everything is on the cloud. So I can work anywhere. I don't have problems. My paralegal is awesome too, so that helps.

It's not nearly as bad as it sounds. The trade off is that I am super rich, have no boss, and my clients really like me. I only need to sleep like 5 hours a night, so I usually work a couple hours before 8am while my wife sleeps. So it doesn't interfere with my trip. Also, most of my "work" is just reviewing my files and sending "to do" lists to my paralegal, and calling my doctor friends to check in on patients.

I live in a wealthy area in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles (think Sherman Oaks, Woodland Hills, Calabasas, Studio City, Tarzana, Encino). Not even remotely close to somewhere like the middle of Riverside. There are 40 million dollar homes within a mile or two of my house. The houses in my neighborhood go from 1-3 million. Mine is on the lower end, probably like 1.3 or 1.4 or so now.

Yes, there are people way richer than me.

Yes. I usually only take salary once a year but I pulled out money twice this year. Once to finish paying off my house, and another to buy a property I just bought for my mother-in-law. She is going to be my tenant and baby sit my kid due in July. I paid the down payment and she pays the mortgage. I get free child care for life. When she dies I'll have another paid off property.

I send out a monthly newsletter that has 4 short parts. I have about 800 people on my mailing list. All former clients. It literally takes me 15 minutes to make. I have 2 legal tips (what to do in an auto accident, what is an MRI, etc), 1 legal news article I rip off google, and recent case success from that month (usually a 50k or 100k settlement and some background). I have a facebook page with about 500 followers that I post legal tips once a week, and my newsletter auto populates every month. I use mailchimp which is free and really good.

I really like talking to lots of people, especially weird ones. It's kind of fun to meet different type of people. Plus my personal network for favors is huge. Since I've handled like 1000 cases, I know people who do practically everything. My paralegal needed credit repair, boom I had a client do it for her for free. It was my mom's bday, boom baker client made her a cake. My car battery dies, boom tow truck driver friend comes and changes battery for free.

The only thing that can be stressful is when the client (1) doesn't understand that if they have no collision coverage it will take time to get their car repaired/get rental (2) that they should have had underinsured motorist coverage and they are mad because some poor person with a 15K policy hit them (3) they think they're a special snow flake and their case is worth 10x what it really is or (4) they don't understand that the process takes months or even years.

Brother, thank you for all the wisdom you have shared with the board. In the case of (4)--that the process takes months or years--what do people do about car repair and hospital bills? Pay them and float the cash for all that time; or not pay, damage credit, and sue for interest etc?

If they have no collision coverage and liability is disputed, their car may sit in front of their house for months. Nothing I can do about that.

Hospitals will usually do payment plans of like $50/month on bills if the client doesn't want it to hit their credit. Most hospitals will NOT put it on a lien.

I do a lot of $1000 and under small loans for my clients. I don't charge interest. I've loaned up to $10,000 on some bigger cases. I have a spinal fusion case right now that I've loaned like $8,000 on so far. There is a 5 mil policy and anticipate it settling in the seven figures.
