"the naked lawyer is not for the timid. It is for the BOLD. It is for the SAVVY. It is for the OPPORTUNIST. Right from the start you are confronted by the bare naked truth - for those who get itA" you will not read this once. It will be well worn because it will be a constant reference for you." - Dr Richard Norris, self leadership, performance & legacy coach, MBA, author of 'Hoof it! 7 Key Lessons on Your Journey of Success.' Your approach to 'developing and marketing' business for law firms is such a breath of fresh air - especially in terms of formulating innovative ideas for firms to move forward post the Legal Services Act." - Charlotte Black, Solicitor, Travlaw LLP. "the naked lawyer is a truly motivational marketing and sales book - and with the current shake-up of legal services comes at a particularly opportune moment." - Tim Kevan, Barrister (non-practising), Guardian law blogger, author of 'Law and Disorder' and co-author of 'Why Lawyers Should Surf.' "This well written and important work will change our lives for the better, it has already improved and touched mine." - David Gabor, Attorney at Law, New York.' "I'd highly recommend this book to any lawyer who is serious about thriving in the new connected world." - Steve Kuncewicz, Intellectual Property, Media & Entertainment Lawyer, author of 'Legal Issues of Web 2.0 and Social Media.' "I'm just going to say that the author of a book about sales and marketing which compels you to read it as strongly as the naked lawyer does clearly knows a thing or two about rainmaking." - Peter Groves, IP Lawyer (30 years experience), author of 'A Dictionary of Intellectual Property."
