I often have past employees reach out to me to say hi, still considering me “family” many years later. It is such a good feeling. Growing up with a dad as an attorney in a solo practice and my mom in nursing, certain skills were passed down to me as someone who always cares for others, listens to their needs and who tries to have an answer. If I did not know how to solve the problem, I was taught to find a way. You treat people right, with respect and understanding, and you will be rewarded. Having procedures in place and being willing to adopt new ones is the key to keeping a tight ship afloat. Can you share anything about your plans for the future of Junes Legal? Business changed dramatically after COVID-19, and in most cases, the changes are well received. Everyone is excited and maybe a bit anxious to see where this new era takes us. Most practices are becoming more digital; courthouse hours of operations are changing; electronic filing and department drop-offs look different. JUNES is staying on top of these changes, and it is our goal to be part of this evolving legal industry. At JUNES we listen to our clients’ ever-changing needs. We always tailor our services around their needs by listening and adapting. I enjoy meeting my clients one-on-one and hearing what they need and making sure they know their needs are my number one priority. I am a hands-on owner and am always available. Everyone makes promises. I like results and a strong handshake, and I follow through on my promises. In this profession, the stress can get the best of you with due-right-now timelines and crazy demands, but at JUNES no one needs to worry if the job is being handled. We get it done. I am 70 years old and people always ask when I will retire – and if will I retire. This business keeps the blood flowing. I am JUNES and JUNES is me; so I guess the answer is simply: no. I am fortunate to have my oldest daughter, Rebecca, assisting in the day-to-day operations. Her depth of knowledge and insight, her ability and her communication skills are very strong. She is more than capable of managing the ever-changing industry. My other two children, although doing their own thing now, also spent years with JUNES and helped to set up procedures still used today. My son developed our software that clients and staff use today, and my youngest daughter developed the court and runner system, offering her very personal touch to clients’ needs. It truly is a family business. I even have second generations working at JUNES – grown kids of prior employees starting at the office! Whether we like it or not, we are being judged and compared to our competitors. Having discipline to work efficiently, effectively and with measurable results will ensure we stand out and get noticed – and in a good way! There is nothing more impressive than a company you can count on to get the job done. Mastering good work ethics and exceeding expectations is the accountability that will keep Junes going for another 50 years. With a staff of over 32, many with over 10 years’ experience at JUNES, we offer a unique field of expertise. Being successful in business absolutely has challenges. Understanding there is no obstacle to stand in our way, we choose to conquer every request from every client. MY LEGAL LIFE 27 This business keeps the blood flowing. I am JUNES and JUNES is me.
