Deifilia Diaz On The Power of a Niche
May 3, 2022
Too few attorneys understand the value of targeting a client niche. A legal niche can be a practice area, demographic or any other segment of a market. It’s when an attorney brings together a very narrow focused niche they often become well-known and sought after by their clients as is the case with our guest Deifilia Diaz.
Being an immigrant herself well positions Deifilia to serve her community and has made her the go-to attorney for their legal needs. Even as Deifilia provides a much need and fantastic service for her niche clients, she’s equally and rightfully earned a place as a model to other attorneys on the power of creating a niche practice.
We’re happy to have Deifilia join #nolawfirmleftbehind this week to talk about how other attorneys can create niches for themselves.
