Show Notes: 

Don’t understand: Many lawyers today don’t understand the mindset of the entrepreneur.

They’ll talk trash: If you do a bad job for one person, they’ll talk trash about you to everybody.

Maybe one person: If you do a good job for ten people, maybe one person will say something nice.

Can be beneficial: It can be a beneficial decision to turn some clients away, even in your company’s early days.

On the dangers: People acquainted with law will have checked out where dangers can be for clients, but one danger can be that they get fixated on the dangers.

Lawyer or entrepreneur: There’s all the difference in the world between being a lawyer and being an entrepreneur with a law degree.

On business value: For those in IP, instead of focusing on technology, you should focus on business value.

Serve you well: It can serve you well as an entrepreneur to be able to put yourself in someone else’s shoes.
