“We’ve branched out quite a bit on this column, but it’s our continuing mission to shed light on stories of ex-large-law-firm attorneys and what they are doing that’s different and interesting. XPAN Law Group is one example of a law firm that provides functional business advice and risk management with legal counsel to meet the real needs of small and mid-sized companies. I see several firms like this popping up, and it’s always inspiring to hear about attorneys who leave behind the security of salary for the exciting adventure of entrepreneurship.

My interview with Rebecca Rakoski and Jordan Fischer, founders of XPAN, encapsulates so much about the courageous lawyers across the country stepping out to try and change things through their own vision of practice. I hope you enjoy the interview.”
