We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Jordan Ostroff. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Jordan below.
Hi Jordan, thanks for sharing your insights with our community today. Part of your success, no doubt, is due to your work ethic and so we’d love if you could open up about where you got your work ethic from?
I get my work ethic from my cousins. Both of them worked REALLY hard to make sure that one of them was able to be there with their kids every day. One cousin worked from home 1-2 days a week (this has been for the last 20 years…well before covid made it a normal thing) and the other worked longer hours on the weekends and the days the other one was home. I have taken this to heart to make sure at least one of my wife or I can be there for our son as needed.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
Jordan’s first “real law job” was for the State of Florida as an Assistant State Attorney. Jordan, along with his better half (his words – but we agree) and fellow attorney, Heather Trick, opened up Jordan Law; a PI law firm located in Orlando, Florida in 2015. After losing a substantial amount of money on marketing agencies that didn’t understand how to market a law firm properly, Jordan buckled down, learned the basics and put into practice as he kept learning more and more.
He then partnered up with some of the best marketing minds to form something totally new and different, a firm built for lawyers, by lawyers. That takes the long view to drive the most success for his fellow attorneys, and hopefully change some lives for the better.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
The 3 qualities/skills/areas of knowledge that have been the most impactful on my journey would be my enjoyment of learning, my positive attitude through struggles, and my genuine care for other people.
Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?
My advice to people early in their journey is to TRULY map out what you want and who you are, and then focus on growing that stuff about you while hiring people to cover the rest.
