Hi, due to family reasons, I will be moving to a state that my current firm doesn’t have an office in - I have had some preliminary discussions and they would be fine with me working fully remote. I am a 4th year so I have started doing some business development but fear that the move may hinder or slow down that aspect. Does anyone have any tips on how to continue business development with this type of move? Thanks!

Join your local bar association when you move. It’s a great way to meet local attorneys from other practice areas and they can refer clients to you.

Will your family obligations still allow you to travel? I'm remote in another state, but will drop everything to attend pitches, client meetings, and industry conferences in person so that I can continue to advance my BD

Yes, I think that is the ticket (plus reminding yourself that little kiddos is a short season of your career). I was an overwhelmed member of the 2 under 2 club when I started being remote, and now my younger is almost 2. I often travel at inconvenient times so that I can be present for bedtime or wakeups, and I remind people I work with that once my kids are in school, travel will become easier for me.

I’m mostly remote, but my base office isn’t the main office for my practice (NYC). For conferences, client meetings, and other BD, my firm pays for me to travel to NYC so I can attend. Otherwise, just being personable and friendly with clients via email and calls re: whatever deals I’m working on has worked just fine for me.

Thank you for your input! Do you feel like BD has slowed down since working remote? I am trying to figure out how much more time I would devote to it while fully remote compared to if I was working in an office/same city.

Hey all - 2 years in consulting so far as a fairly "type b" personality - relaxed, uncompetitive, enjoy socializing with my colleagues. To be clear, this is not the same as being lazy or irresponsible - I am diligent and do my work well.
