Lawyers have a unique relationship with their clients. They might only be contacted by the client when they need something done, they have done something wrong, or they have neglected to do something and are now in trouble. It can be like trying to drive forward while your view is through the car's rear view mirror. They are also fiduciaries, widely accepted as a profession that maintains confidentiality, putting the interests of their clients above their own. How involved are you going to get in the personal life of your client?
That question might not be limited to clients. If you open the door to helping clients with financial planning, it can also make sense that a law firm might address the same concerns internally. In that case, the financial planning questions a forward-thinking attorney might ask of a client are also questions that attorney should be considering in their own life.
Is there an opportunity to make money? Yes. You are in the business of providing objective advice for a fee. Some of these services you might provide or can be accessed through another area of your firm. Others, like investment management, would be provided by a third party of the client's choosing. You might decide to get into that aspect of the business yourself, but you are stepping away from the fiduciary role if you are positioning yourself as the preferred provider. Disclosure is important.
These questions might not directly lead to business. They do indicate you have your client's best interests as a priority and are seeking to build a long-term relationship.
