Legal Marketing Expert Stephen Fairley and Law Firm Management Authority and NJ Attorney Donald Scarinci Reveal Lessons From Dewey & LeBoeuf Bankruptcy in Live Webinar

LYNDHURST, N.J., June 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- National legal marketing expert Stephen Fairley will interview leading New Jersey business law attorney Donald Scarinci, a law firm management authority and Founding Partner of Scarinci Hollenbeck, during a live webinar on Wednesday, June 27, 2012 at 2 p.m. ET on Lessons From Dewey & LeBoeuf: 5 Biggest Reasons Why Law Firms Fail.

On May 28, 2012, Manhattan law firm Dewey & LeBoeuf stunned the legal community with its Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, the largest in law firm history. Fairley's interview with Scarinci will dissect what went wrong and how other law firms can avoid a similar fate.

"New Jersey business attorney Donald Scarinci is a nationally recognized thought leader on law firm management and has been instrumental in making Scarinci Hollenbeck one of the fastest-growing mid-sized law firms on the East Coast," says Fairley. Scarinci currently serves as Managing Partner of the Lyndhurst, NJ-based law firm and is a regular columnist on the Martindale.com blog, one of the most widely read websites for lawyers. He blogs on constitutional law issues on his Constitutional Law Reporter website and has worked with many of the largest New Jersey municipalities and counties, as well as numerous planning and zoning boards, economic development authorities, colleges, school boards, utility authorities, and other public sector entities at every level of municipal, county, regional and state government.

During the June 27 live webinar, Fairley and Scarinci will discuss:

• The 5 biggest reasons why law firms fail and how other law firms can avoid a similar fate
• How fast-growing firms can avoid the pitfalls that brought Dewey & LeBoeuf to its knees
• How Scarinci Hollenbeck went from relying almost entirely on "word of mouth" marketing to being featured in the Wall Street Journal for their cutting-edge approach to social media in less than six months
• What Managing Partners and law firm administrators need to know now to compete
• Marketing and managing your law firm in today's roller-coaster economy
• A "behind the scenes" case study of how Scarinci Hollenbeck has adapted to the new realities
• Effective tools multi-attorney firms can use to market a variety of partners and practice areas
