Lawyers consistently tell us that LinkedIn is the social media platform that makes the most sense for them and other legal professionals. They like the professional and business focus of LinkedIn, as compared to the personal focus of Facebook and other platforms. However, lawyers also tell us they wish they could use LinkedIn better than they do now. In this episode, we welcome guest Allison Shields to discuss the new book LinkedIn in One Hour for Lawyers, how lawyers can make better use of LinkedIn, and some practical tips lawyers and others can implement right away on the professional networking site.
