Get to know Jennifer Overhaus and you will instantly discover her passion for life, ambition, and goal-centered achievement. It was this mindset that fueled her legal career, and helped her accomplish exactly what she set out to do as a lawyer (distinguish herself in a unique specialty and lead a global practice group in a major international law firm).

For Jennifer, becoming a leading expert in her field was the easy part! Growing from a legal expert towards building up her client base, bringing in new business and developing her leadership skills proved much less straightforward, and taught her a good deal.
This is probably why Jennifer gradually became interested in helping the younger generation succeed with greater ease and self-awareness. As she focused on mentoring the young lawyers around her, she became increasingly conscious that they were often not encouraged to cultivate the skills most likely to bring them long-term success. (And looking back on her own journey, despite having been surrounded in each firm with wonderful lawyers, mentors and friends, she realized that she too could have been better educated, as opposed to enduring the all-too-familiar lawyer scenario: sink or swim.)
Eventually, Jennifer's passion for mentoring best-possible development to junior lawyers transitioned into writing a book that would deliver her message to a much wider audience—which is how Juggling the Big 3 was born.
Jennifer welcomes any comments, contributions or questions you may have with regard to Juggling the Big 3, or anything else for that matter. Please contact her: Jennifer@provechziel.com.
“Mastery of these three critical components—brand, business, and leadership—makes the difference between just being a technically talented lawyer and creating a rewarding legal practice. This book is essential for any lawyer aspiring to build a satisfying and successful legal career.”
Dr. Jim Hever Head of the Client Development Centre Addleshaw Goddard
