Keeping Clients, Reputation, and Profits – with Edward Cohn

Struggling to balance high-quality client service with steady law firm growth? You’re not alone—many attorneys find it challenging to deliver a personalized experience while scaling their practice and collecting payments efficiently.

In this episode of Profit with Law, host Moshe Amsel welcomes criminal defense attorney Edward Cohn of Cohn Justice, Tucson, AZ. Edward reveals the lessons and systems behind his enduring solo practice, including how he’s built a reputation for stellar client experience, earned 50+ five-star reviews, and maintained strict flat-fee policies that actually improve cash flow—all while turning down the wrong clients and attracting the right referrals.

Whether you’re a solo or small firm owner, this deep-dive delivers proven frameworks for solving some of law’s toughest business challenges with authenticity and strategy.

🔹 You’ll walk away with actionable insights on:

  • Defining and delivering “stellar” client service—what actually matters and how to measure it
  • Setting clear expectations that boost trust, lower stress, and reduce complaints
  • The art of saying no: how to identify—and disengage from—clients who’ll drain your time, energy, or reputation
  • Eliminating payment headaches: Edward’s tactics for upfront fee collection, removing payment plans, and keeping everyone happy
  • Turning positive outcomes and relationships into a steady stream of Google reviews and referrals
  • Using empathy and authenticity as growth levers—building client loyalty and a reputation that attracts the cases you want

Implementing even one of these strategies can transform your law firm’s client experience, increase profitability, and free you from the constant payment-chase and problem-client cycle.
