So you’re coming to New Orleans for PILMMA’s Summit. Well, you’re in luck as I’m about to dish out my must see, do, visit list while in New Orleans, from someone born and raised in this great city.
SIGHTSEEING
First up, you’re lucky to have Summit at a hotel in arguably one of the most interesting and unique neighborhoods in the U.S. The French Quarter is an incomparable experience due to its history, culture, architecture and amenities. Take at least a few minutes to tour through the Quarter and soak up the atmosphere and vibe, hit Jackson Square to see St. Louis Cathedral, the oldest congregation in Louisiana (1718). While walking, here are some of my favorite places to duck into: M.S. Rau, an amazing antique store packed with out of this world items. If you’re into armaments and/or history, step into Cohen & Sons on Royal for quite a treat. Given New Orleans’ role in the War of 1812 and Civil War, there is no shortage of history and artifacts in this store.
DINING
If I had limited time and could only dine at a few places, here is my short list. Breakfast – Two places come to mind, both are quick and easy, and check the box for fun, must do while in NOLA. Stanley is a popular breakfast/lunch spot in Jackson Square that serves traditional favorites as well as some unique South LA plates. My go-to dish is the Breaux Bridge Benedict (with Boudin). Or hit Cafe Du Monde to get the quintessential breakfast (or late night snack), the Beignet.
Lunch – I would skip lunch to save room for my favorite dinner spots. But, if you must fuel up mid-day, go to the small Italian market Central Grocery for one of their Muffuletta’s. Don’t order a whole one unless you bring along a few friends.

When most of us think about our clients, one of the first things that come to mind is a mental picture of that client who is being a pain in the proverbial butt. You know, the one you just can’t please – that’s always calling and complaining. (And typically, these are the clients you’ve done the most for or whose case is small enough you regret taking it in the first place). Or maybe you think of the client whose...
One of the biggest things that sets highly successful entrepreneurs apart from most business owners is that they are continual learners. They are never satisfied with the status quo. They are always asking “What if?” They are striving to know more, so they can do more and become more. They are not resting on yesterday’s success, but are striving to achieve greater success today and tomorrow. They understand the importance of acquiring fresh ideas and new insights. With that in...

And even if you aren’t personally interested in this current courtroom spare, loads of your potential clients are. All around the world, viewers are glued to their flat screens or mobile screens, checking out the unfolding Depp/Heard saga.
Yes, you read it correctly. Google Searches for Businesses “Near Me” rose 500% in the last several years, according to recent stats. And the stats keep going up. This isn’t just huge for restaurants and retail stores. It’s big news for any business, including law firms. If you are a law firm owner and want to dominate your market, this latest data is almost – and in some cases, MORE important than amassing Online Reviews. In fact, I’d say this...
Some Law Firm Growth Strategies are not for the faint at heart – but bold moves can yield huge returns – especially when it comes to Law Firm Growth by Acquisition.
Here’s what we know right now: There’s never been an easier time to obtain equity or SBA Fund Financing for law firm acquisitions than today. In years past, these companies perceived law firms as too risky – or speculative to value. Not so in 2022. More available cash means growing...
