Your Profitable Law Firm Podcast

New episode is released each week

It wasn't supposed to end up this way

Your law firm grew...

Your caseload grew...

Your profits didn't.

Wasn't growing your law practice supposed to solve your financial challenges? That was the plan anyway.

But if you're like most attorneys, managing the business side of your firm has become an overwhelming burden that takes you away from what you do best – practicing law.

Maybe some of these sound familiar?

  • You spend more time managing the firm than serving clients

  • Partner/owner distributions are unpredictable and cause tension

  • Billing and collections feel like a constant uphill battle

  • Your bookkeeper is overwhelmed by trust accounting complexities

  • Client funds management keeps you up at night

  • Important firm decisions are based on vibes rather than data

  • You dream of building a firm that will be your legacy, but the path forward feels unclear

We get it. And we want to help.

Have you read Kelley's book "Stop Struggling and Start Thriving: A Guide To Transform Your Law Firm"?

Set clear financial goals, make informed decisions, and increase your profits - while decreasing your stress

This isn't just another catchy headline. This is possible FOR YOU and your law firm. What would it mean to run your practice with total clarity and confidence around your finances, while focusing on what matters most – serving your clients? Can you picture it?

When we work with law firm owners, we see results:

  • Improved cash flow and predictable distributions

  • Clear visibility into billable hours, WIP, and realization rates

  • Optimized billing practices and increased collection rates

  • Confidence in your trust accounting compliance

  • Growth in both revenue AND profitability per partner/owner

  • Strategic guidance for key firm decisions

  • Complete financial clarity that empowers you to build the firm you envision

Too good to be true? See for yourself.
