In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, attorneys and moms Lacey and Lauren dive into the important topic of outsourcing, both in business and home life. The episode begins with a brief Q&A about probate records, explaining that wills are public records and heirs should receive notice from the court when they're named in a will.

They then share their experiences with business outsourcing, emphasizing how although hiring staff and delegating tasks, such as marketing, can be scary for small business owners, it often leads to increased profitability and better work-life balance. Lauren discusses how hiring a paralegal has allowed her firm to bill more hours, while Lacey shares how bringing on an associate attorney has helped her return to doing work she enjoys, like bond court. They also stress the importance of treating staff well and creating an open, family-like office environment where employees feel comfortable discussing personal challenges.

Lacey and Lauren also discuss outsourcing in personal life, particularly as working moms. Both advocate for letting go of guilt associated with hiring house cleaners, ordering takeout, or paying for lawn care, emphasizing that outsourcing household tasks allows them to spend more quality time with their families. Consider outsourcing when possible and recommend supporting small local businesses when doing so!
