Early life and education

Anise was born in Cairo, Egypt and came to the United States when he was two,[7] growing up in New Jersey.[8] He grew up in New Jersey and attended Monmouth University prior to going into law. Anise pursued a career in law, despite having a background in sales, marketing, and real estate.[4] He attended Shepard Broad Law Center at Nova Southeastern University in Florida, graduating and passing the Florida Bar exam in 1995.[4]

Career

Anise began his career in law in 1995 when he started the Anise Law Firm, focusing on business law and international business transactions.[4] Four and a half years later, he moved into marketing and consulting. He focused on solo practitioners, small firms and medium firms who do not have their own marketing departments.[4] He began Nader Anise Lawyer Marketing in 1999. He has since been a marketing strategist to law firms and businesses, giving presentations to large groups throughout the United States.[9]

Anise is the founder of the American Lawyers Public Image Association (ALPIA), an organization with a goal of promoting a positive image for lawyers.[10] He serves as the organization's national director.[3] Anise and the Association made news in 2001 after they publicly denounced NBC-TV's First Years, a television show that documented the life of first-year lawyers.[11][12] The show was later cancelled after the first season.[13] Anise founded I Love My Lawyer Day, a day of "no lawyer bashing" and lawyer appreciation that takes place on the 1st Friday of November each year.[14] He established the day after hearing too many negative comments about lawyers.[15]

In addition to his marketing business, Anise is a former adjunct professor of both law and marketing, teaching at Nova Southeastern University's H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship. He is also credited with coining the term lawyerpreneur.[16]
