Most law firms fight over the same clients in the same crowded market. Nathan Harris went the other way.
He built his practice around a community other firms would not market to. Ten clients in 2010 turned into offices in more than one state.
The niche nobody wanted became the thing nobody could copy.

- The first ten clients in 2010, and what he did to get them
