Lem Garcia is a personal injury attorney and the founder of Lem Garcia Law in California. In this episode, Lem shares how he went from answering Craigslist job ads to running a 20-person law firm. With humility, insight, and honesty, Lem walks us through what it takes to start a firm from nothing and why self-belief and strategic thinking are key to long-term success.

Lawyer Side Hustles

Unlike some guests with side hustles unrelated to law, Lem’s passion project is his firm itself. He sees law firm ownership as both a business and a creative pursuit. From writing SOPs to mentoring team members, Lem puts intention into every piece of the business.

“If you explain the why behind what you're doing... they can apply that later on and be more confident in what they do,” expresses Lem Garcia in Episode 196 of You Are a Lawyer.

Through firm leadership, Lem uses his law degree to create opportunity for others. He mentors staff, builds scalable systems, and remains deeply involved in both the legal and operational sides of his firm. His side hustle isn’t separate from his practice; it is the practice.
