Are You Running a Law Firm

That´s Running You  Into the Ground?

It's Time To Rethink How You Manage Your Law Firm

 As the principal of a small law firm, are you, are you spending your days buried under admin, chasing staff for timesheets, or juggling too much work with too little return. Are you working longer hours, making less money, and wondering how it all got so hard. You’re not alone.

Since 2014 we've helped firms accelerate their growth

Take Firm 1, for example.

She had a team but wasn’t managing them effectively. They weren’t billing anywhere near capacity, and she was so flat out doing her own work that she couldn’t stop long enough to see where the real problems were. Delegation was a challenge. Training didn’t happen. The issue went unnoticed for months because they didn’t have the right reporting systems in place to see it. And at the end of every month? Nothing left in the bank.

Then there’s Firm 2

Whose firm relied entirely on his personal reputation. Clients loved him — but everything flowed through him. Too much slipped through the cracks because he simply didn’t have time to
see it all. Growth was out of the question, because he was the
business.

And Firm 3?

Their team was 30% under target for billable hours. Profit was non-existent. Ineffective marketing and weak lead generation left the pipeline dry and unpredictable. This situation had to be resolved.

What’s the common thread? 

A business model built on busyness, not strategy.

  • No visibility into where time (and money) was being lost.
  • No clear systems for training, delegation or performance management.
  • No marketing strategy outside of referrals — which inevitably slow down.
  • No infrastructure set up for growth — just survival.
  • No control over cash flow, revenue or cost analysis.
  • A business plan written for the bank… and never looked at again.

And when clients come in with work that’s outside the firm’s expertise?

 They say yes anyway — fearful of losing the client — only
to over-service and undercharge.

It doesn’t have to be this way.
You can build a law firm that runs profitably, predictably and
sustainably — without everything falling on you

  • Get clear visibility into your team’s capacity and billing.
  • Delegate effectively without compromising quality.
  • Build systems that deliver consistent client service 
  • Say no to the wrong work — and attract more of the right kind 
  • Get your cash flow and marketing under control 
  • Step out of the daily grind and into the role of business owner — not just principal

It starts with knowing where the leaks are — and having a clear,
proven path to fix them.


You don’t need more hours in the day. You need a better plan.
Let’s help you find it.
