“Part of the reason that I am successful now is because I have a rich body of information that I have been putting out consistently over the last nine years.” – Daliah Saper
When Daliah Saper started her practice at the age of 24, she needed to figure out a way to reach out to people who wouldn’t be intimated by her age. Daliah Saper is the perfect example of a lawyer intelligently leveraging media and the Internet to build up her online presence and further benefit her legal business. Young entrepreneurs and attorneys will find her story inspiring. Neither will age, gender, nor the size of your law firm prevent your business from flourishing.
Daliah Saper is one of the speakers at Lawyernomics 2014 in Las Vegas on April 23.
The main struggle Saper had in the early beginning, which is staring at a lot of lawyers in the face these days, is that ten years ago, nobody was required of such a significant online presence; whereas today, a website and a blog are just not enough. Throughout the program, Daliah Saper shares many useful tips with young entrepreneurs, the mistakes she has made, and the source of her inspiration.
The valuable information and content she has been putting out constantly is what got her the media attention. One piece of incredible advice Saper has for all attorneys is that when news networks or programs are searching for a legal expert to comment on a case, they would like to find someone who either handles the case or has written about the case in their blog or on their website.

“Part of the reason why we created a strong brand is I have only accepted cases that I feel that I can personally, confidently oversee or do it myself..it’s better to say no and not take on the headache of trying to manage something you are not specialized in or good at.” – Daliah Saper
