Anybody here do litigation support? Is it very lucrative? Is there lots of work out there for it?

In my opinion, this would generate more fees quickly, and it would involve some CFE type work to boot, without the need of getting the CFE right away.

I never took much divorce work over the years, and the cases I took were fairly simple.

However, there were a couple of divorce lawyers in my building, and they would have these mounds of bills, investment statements, and all that to go through.

For general practice smaller law firms, divorce is still a good area of law.

There is also going to be quite a lot of litigation coming up over commercial property, but I don't know what form that's going to take yet: probably bankruptcy.

You would probably have to work on some "smaller" matters like this, and get some experience before you could be called in on something like a personal injury or malpractice type case to help determine damages (and testify). Be worth studying though.

Most states have a State Bar Magazine, and you could look into advertising in that. Also, the local bar associations sell ads.
