This is probably the wrong place to ask but what do small firms do?

There are some office space sharing arrangements. When it looked like my small firm was about to go under a few years ago, we looked into sharing a receptionist with another firm. We also looked into having access to a conference room for meeting clients while working from home. The partner who made decisions about such things balked at not having his own space with his own shingle on it, and ultimately he ended up keeping his rent and his receptionist. He did lose most of the lawyers though.
