Core legal work and billable hours can suffer unless you are outsourcing mail services to mailing support professionals.
Enterprise law firms have mailrooms and staff to sort, distribute, and collect mail. However, solo and small law firms often have to perform these tasks personally. This can be time-consuming and take you away from the work that really counts. Like business development efforts. Making sure every client has a great experience. And building your referral network.
If you are using a P. O. Box at the local post office, shifting to a private mailbox in a prestigious office building will give you a professional address and suite number. If you currently work at home, it will help keep your home address secure and private.
