Amanda Butler Schley has the fascinating story of transitioning from big law to a solo practice, and then taking that legal practice to sea – literally – by doing her work all around the world from a sailboat. She’s transitioned back to a land-based practice these days, but continues to use all of the lessons she learned from running a practice out of the middle of the ocean. And now she’s here to share them with us.

Jodi Silbermann is a longtime paralegal, based in California, and focused primarily on family law and estate planning. She has started her own business providing paralegal services and divorce coaching. She’s also written and published a book on the divorce process and how one can navigate through it. We talk about how Jodi can either work with an attorney to facilitate the legal process to be more efficient, or otherwise use her expertise to proceed without an outside attorney. She’s in an interesting position, and with that carries an interesting perspective to share.
