This week LESA spoke to Jeffery Kahane, of the Kahane Law Office. Kahane’s firm won a 2014 Top Choice award after being selected as Calgary’s Top Real Estate Law Firm. Congratulations to the Kahane Law Office and the nine other 2014 Top Choice law firm award recipients in Alberta!
When we spoke to Kahane, he emphasized his firm’s efficient, high-level customer service as one of the main reasons his clients are loyal and satisfied. He explained that “the more efficient you are the better level of service you can give your clients.” Undoubtedly this efficiency is one reason the firm won a Top Choice Award.
Kahane went on to describe how embracing new technology and using good systems to stay organized help his firm to maximize its efficiency. And Kahane has plenty of experience integrating new technology. His LinkedIn profile was one of the Top 1% Viewed Profiles in 2012, he shares short educational videos on YouTube (Kahane Law Legal Minute), and his office is in the process of launching a new program for clients to check the status of their accounts online.
Kahane also makes a point of sharing his insights with others in the legal community. He speaks at many seminars and workshops, including LESA’s upcoming Law and Practice Update (Calgary, November 7-8). At this seminar he’ll be talking about the future of real estate law practice, including a discussion about the intersection of technology and marketing. Kahane calls technological advances a “dual edged sword” that will make the practice of real estate law very different in the next 10 years. In his words, lawyers can be “horrible” at embracing change, but he cautions that “if you don’t embrace it, you’ll become obsolete.”
