Originally published in the June 8, 2012 issue of SmallLaw: Asymmetrical competition refers to succeeding by circumventing stronger competitors through reinvention rather than going head to head. The most well-known example is Apple's iPhone, which vanquished once dominant companies like Motorola, Nokia, and Research in Motion by reinventing the smartphone with a muti-touch screen, built-in App Store, and several other innovations. In this issue of SmallLaw, lawyer and law practice advisor Erik Mazzone analyzes the relatively recent success of food trucks, which have also used asymmetrical competition. Erik draws five lessons from these hyper efficient small businesses that your small law firm can apply, especially with LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer engaged in asymmetrical competition of their own design aimed at you. Also, don't miss the SmallLaw Pick of the Week for a new search engine designed to complement Google.

Originally published in the June 5, 2012 issue of SmallLaw: Last month, Above the Law published a series of colorful email messages sent by a (now former) lawyer at Cozen O'Connor to opposing counsel that led to a motion for sanctions. In light of this incident, we thought it would be a good idea to explore a law practice skill not taught in law school — interacting with opposing counsel. In this issue of SmallLaw, veteran litigator Kristin Branson provides five valuable tips. These pearls of wisdom will not only prevent you from being mocked on Above the Law or worse, but they will also give you a strategic advantage over opposing counsel regardless of your area of practice.
