Episode Summary

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and James Grant discuss: Hiring a business coach early in your law firm. Missteps along the journey to having a successful law firm. Why you need to understand your numbers. Time blocking, not multitasking. Key Takeaways: Coaches may be expensive, but if you are getting a 10x return or more on that investment, it is absolutely worth it. If you are cheap in your law firm, you will reap what you sow. In hiring an attorney, they should be producing profit for the firm within 4-6 weeks. You might be a great attorney with a great mind, but if you aren’t running a good business your client will not be getting the best service.
