What if the fastest way to grow your firm was not another ad, but a joke?
n this episode of Life Beyond the Briefs, Brian sits down with Jimmy Lai, an immigration lawyer with a fast-growing, empathy-first practice, to ask a simple question: Could humor make you more hireable?
From Taiwan to Oklahoma City, Jimmy’s story shows how culture, personality, and daily LinkedIn posts can turn strangers into clients and advocates.

You will learn:

  • How to use humor and empathy to lower client anxiety and increase conversions
  • A simple LinkedIn posting routine (PS and PPS) that builds trust and referrals
  • Why community beats cold outreach and how to build one that sticks
  • Smart ways to scale, including of-counsel partnerships, reviews, and operations that do not break
  • The immigration law nuances that make your intake truly client-centered

Hit play, grab a coffee, and steal the playbook for being memorable without being unprofessional.
