A Conversation with Brian Potts on the Legal Journey

Legal-Ease Podcast

Brian H Potts has made waves through his transparency on Linkedin and Twitter. It all started a month ago, with a post about his rejection letter from Perkins Coie back in 2002, his dream law firm, only to celebrate the fact that he is now partner at that very firm. The caption was “Law Students: If at first you don’t succeed, try try again.” The post quickly became viral, and it didn’t stop there – several law students and recent grads reached out to Brian for career advice. He not only engaged with them via Linkedin and Zoom meetings and continues to, but he also actively uses his platforms to boost their qualifications in hopes of finding them job opportunities. Then, his efforts appeared in Above the Law, where of course, the kind-hearted Brian again offered up his email for law students and law grads to reach out. Brian has an impressive bio which can be found on the website at Legaleasepodcast.com -- But to summarize here, Brian is a business attorney, litigator, entrepreneur and writer who has advised a range of FORTUNE 100 and smaller clients, including startups. And today, he's here to talk about the Legal Journey. This is particularly a great episode for individuals in the legal community or for individuals interested in law school. We hope that even during these uncertain times, this episode will shed some light on navigating the legal journey for law students and recent law school grads.
