Choosing the right people for the job is a difficult — yet necessary — task, most especially in a law firm. Human capital is one of the most important growth factors for a business. Oftentimes, employees are hired for their education and training but rarely do companies get to assess an individual’s personality, which can say a lot about how they communicate with colleagues and potential clients. We cannot just hire attorneys for their skills; we need employees that are good for our firm’s culture. 

In this episode, Andrew Wilcox joins us to talk about his experience in growing a legal search and consulting firm. He discusses the importance of quality staffing, along with the challenges law firms face when it comes to employee retention. He also highlights the need for a skilled leader to keep teams intact.

Starting your own law firm is one of the riskiest decisions you can make. However, most firm owners start their firm because of circumstance and not because they evaluated the risk. So, even if you took the risk to start your own firm, you may still be risk averse and if you’re risk averse, that will hold you back from making the decisions you need to make in order to grow your firm.

In this episode, Moshe Amsel talks about risk and how to achieve the right balance of risk taking. He explains the difference between unhealthy risk taking that can cost you your firm and healthy risk taking that will catapult the growth of your firm.

Marketing is often not a top priority for many lawyers or law firms. However, understanding why marketing is important is crucial for the growth of your firm.

If you’re searching for a marketing agency but are hesitant to invest a large sum right away, we have the perfect solution for you: pay-per-click marketing. It ensures that your investment yields value in the form of leads. From there, you just need to make sure that your intake process can take them from start to finish. 

In this episode, Adam Arkfeld joins us to talk about how pay-per-click marketing works to generate leads, helping businesses grow their clientele. He also reminds us that marketing should be backed by a strong intake and follow-up process to show results. 

If you want to know more about why pay-per-click marketing is important and valuable for your law firm, then this episode is for you.

When growing a business, it’s crucial to know where to invest. While most companies allocate their resources to marketing, technology, and social media, there is one critical component that some firms neglect to invest in — their employees. What these companies fail to realize is that investing in their employees contributes significantly to the organization's success. If business owners fail to value their employees, their company may not progress.

In this episode, Chelsie Lamie joins us to share her humble beginnings and explains why she moved from America to Mexico. She also discusses the importance of investing in people and imparts the best practices she employs to keep her staff motivated. Finally, she explains why leadership is not similar to micromanagement and why empowering people you work with is key to a successful law firm. 

If you’re an entrepreneur looking for ways to motivate your employees, this episode is for you! 

3 reasons why...

There can be many reasons why a law firm owner will struggle financially and work 60-80 hours per week. The biggest one by far is because the average law firm owner is doing too many things to the extent of becoming counter-productive.

 Operating a law firm is not a one-man show. You could be the most talented and effective leader, but that doesn’t matter when you can’t leverage your billable hours. Hiring people is an ideal option if you’re striving to increase your revenue or expand your law firm. How can you tell if it’s the right time to hire employees and determine which positions to fill?

In this episode, Moshe lays out why the progress of your law firm remains static. Then, as aspiring law firm owners, you’ll learn the essence of effective task delegation to free your time from non-billable work. Start paving your law firm’s path to success by hiring the right people at the right time.

In this episode, Jess Birken joins us to talk about how she became a solopreneur.
