The Social Media Litigator: From Crisis to Clicks
How does an immigrant's son, after watching his father's business get destroyed by a $200,000 inherited tax liability, become a top business litigator? In this powerful episode, Parag Amin shares his deeply personal origin story and how it fuels his mission to protect entrepreneurs. He also pulls back the curtain on building a law firm using social media (as an introvert), debunks the "post every day" myth, and reveals the #1 reason partnerships fail—and it's not what you think. This is a must-listen for tactical legal advice and a moving story of turning a crisis into a career.
Takeaways
- People follow people, not brands. Building a personal brand on social media is critical for any practice, as it allows you to provide value and build trust.
- Authenticity > Frequency. The "post every day" advice is a myth. Forcing content when you're uninspired leads to bad videos. It's better to "skip it" and film in batches when you're in the zone.
- Diverging visions kill partnerships. The "first crack" in a partnership is rarely about money. It's when partners' personal life goals (e.g., starting a family vs. working 24/7) diverge and they fail to communicate.
Soundbites
- "I think that's the biggest myth in social media: Rather than trying to put out content when you really don't feel like it... skip it."
- "When somebody's personal vision for what they want out of life... changes from what their partner wants... that's when the cracks start to form."
- "The most expensive mistake... is not reading their agreements and then just believing what somebody told them about what the agreement says."
