What if you could build a thriving injury practice in just 2 days without relying heavily on digital marketing?

Swipe through these 5 relationship-first strategies from Kari Ramos, who launched her Phoenix firm on a tight deadline and grew it entirely through referralsβ€”proving that personal connection remains the most powerful growth engine.

These aren't theoretical concepts - they're battle-tested tactics from someone who chose genuine relationships over marketing automation and built a practice that runs on trust πŸ’ͺ

What makes Kari's approach different:
βœ… Shows up in person to medical offices while competitors stay behind screens
βœ… Gives "rejected" cases a second look (and turns them into loyal advocates)
βœ… Seeks mentorship for unfamiliar scenarios (and earns referrals from mentors)
βœ… Uses AI for "what did I miss?" reviews instead of just brainstorming
βœ… Lives by "touch the file, touch the client" - no silent stretches allowed

Her secret weapon? Checking in on former clients about their kids, sending personal texts instead of automated sequences, and treating every case like it's one of fifteen she'll handle (because perfectionism kills momentum).

Ready to see how Kari built her referral machine through relationships, mentorship, and strategic case selection?

πŸ’• What if your best marketing strategy was just... caring?

While most firms chase automation and efficiency, Kari Ramos built her Phoenix injury practice on something radical: genuine relationships that last long after cases close. 🀝

She checks in on former clients, asks about their kids, and sends personal texts instead of automated emails. No marketing funnels. No lead magnets. Just real human connection. πŸ“±πŸ’¬

And it's working. She launched her firm in 2 days and grew it entirely through referrals - no ads, no SEO, no digital playbook. Just relationships. ✨

β–Έ Why she refuses marketing automation (even as she scales)
β–Έ Her "second look" strategy for dropped cases
β–Έ How face-to-face visits became her #1 growth channel
β–Έ The mantra her team lives by: "Touch the file, touch the client"

Sometimes the best business strategy is just being genuinely human. πŸ’›

What if you could turn 60% of your cases into referrals without spending a fortune on traditional marketing?

Swipe through these 7 proven strategies from Sam Aguiar, who built a 45-person Kentucky firm () powered by word-of-mouthβ€”starting from driving across the state to meet clients and growing into a referral machine that consistently outperforms expensive advertising.

Our Story

James was founded in 1981 to provide more practical law books than the treatises that then dominated the market.

Forms are an essential part of that mission, so over the decades we have encouraged our authors to load their books with time-saving motions and pleadings, client letters, and step-by-step procedural checklists. We have also sought heavy doses of pattern arguments, model questions, pitfalls to avoid, and practice tips.

In the ’90β€²s, expanding conglomerate ownership triggered an increase in profits-first business practices among the majors, which have continued to this day in the form of aggressive annual price hikes. We prefer efficiency over price increases. We hope to keep our low prices intact for many more years. We publish books for practicing attorneys in the fields of asset protection, business law, civil litigation, criminal law, employment law, estate planning, family law, personal injury, and Social Security disability.
