Your Law Firm Should
Work For You

(not the other way around)

How To Manage A Small Law Firm isn't like anything else you’ve likely ever encountered before. And since you’re here visiting this website, chances are YOU’RE NOT LIKE EVERYONE ELSE EITHER.

Most lawyers won’t make it here. They’re too busy following the inherited playbook. Too entangled in an identity they didn’t consciously choose.

But YOU found your way here. That already says something. 


And now... YOUR JOURNEY CAN TRULY BEGIN.

The Law Firm Diagnostic is not a pitch. It’s not a plan. It’s a moment of truth where we help you diagnose how to grow your law firm.

We’ve been doing this since 1999 and have helped start, manage & grow THOUSANDS of law firms. So yes, we have a TON of great stuff that we would love to share with you.

You Behave According to
What You Believe

(and WHO you believe you are)

NOT  what you say you want.
NOT  what you know.
NOT  even what's rational.
Your act in accordance with
YOUR THOUGHTS & YOUR IDENTITY.
And your identity — the way you see yourself — was shaped long before you opened your firm. Parents. Teachers. Law school professors. Early mentors. Maybe even a few judges.

It’s a layered construct of messages that told you what it means to be "a real lawyer."
And here’s the Uncomfortable Truth:
The longer you’ve lived with limiting beliefs,
The More You May Have
convinced Yourself They’re True.
THATS WHY...
You underprice

your services &
avoid your
numbers.
You say “I just want to
help people”
while
quietly resenting your
business.
Your law firm
STILL
doesn't
work the way you
want it.
Are you ready to take an honest look at what’s going right in your business, what’s going wrong, what may be possible, and what it might take for your law firm to help you achieve your financial, personal, and professional goals?

Let’s schedule a time to “Take The Pause” and discuss the possibilities.

What is True AND
What is Bullshit?

What’s actually true about:

  • How much income your law firm can produce for you?
  • How predictable & consistent that income can be?
  • The amount of time you can step away — without your
    firm falling apart
    ?
  • How much fun you’re allowed to have owning a law firm that actually works for you?
If your current answers sound like RESIGNATION,
OBLIGATION, OR QUIET RESENTMENT…
It May Be Time To Re-examine

The Truth Behind Those Answers.
Because you’re not just dealing with the operational challenges of your law firm. You’re dealing with a whole set of inherited beliefs — about money, value, professionalism, your role as a lawyer, and your full potential as an entrepreneur. And until you become conscious of and gain control over those beliefs, everything you try will feel like a struggle.

ABOUT US
How To Manage

(but really still about YOU)

In 2009, we started something new. Something that had never been done before in the legal industry.

Not a coaching program. Not another guru with generic advice.


But a real business that treats your law firm like… well, a business.

It All Began With
RJon Robins —



a law school graduate who, like most, was trained to think like a lawyer but left clueless about how to run a law firm. Predictable cash flow? Nowhere to be found. Time off? Unimaginable. A life outside the firm? Not even on the radar.

Then he discovered LOMAS — The Florida Bar’s Law Office Management Assistance Service. And with the mentorship of the legendary JR Phelps, he began seeing the real causes behind law firm dysfunction:

54% of bar grievances and malpractice actions don’t stem from bad lawyering. They stem from broken businesses. What followed were years of immersion. Hundreds of law firms. Thousands of patterns and one undeniable truth:
Every Law Firm Is A Reflection
Of Its Owner’s Identity.
If the owner identifies as a struggling lawyer, the law firm will struggle.
But if the owner learns to be a successful entrepreneur, the law firm will become more successful.

The Law Firm Diagnostic is not a pitch. It’s not a plan. It’s a moment of truth where we help you diagnose how to grow your law firm.

We’ve been doing this since 1999 and have helped start, manage & grow THOUSANDS of law firms. So yes, we have a TON of great stuff that we would love to share with you.

You Don’t Need
Another “Productivity Hack”
You Need a New Lens

(aka a new mindset based on TRUTH)

If you’re reading this, you already know how to work hard.
You already care about your clients. You already want to succeed.
The problem isn't effort.
The Problem Is What

You Believe You’re
Allowed To Have; What You
Believe You “must” Do.
Most lawyers were
handed a broken model that said
Service matters more than profit.
Reputation matters more than scale.
Struggle is a sign of virtue.
The TRUTH is:
More profit makes better service possible.
Scale magnifies reputation.
Virtue has nothing to do with struggling.
Profit Isn’t A Betrayal Of Your Identity.
It’s A Fulfillment Of It.
Running a law firm that pays you well, fulfills you, and grows without breaking you?

That’s not greedy. It’s smart. And sustainable. And possible.

The Law Firm Diagnostic is not a pitch. It’s not a plan. It’s a moment of truth where we help you diagnose how to grow your law firm.

We’ve been doing this since 1999 and have helped start, manage & grow THOUSANDS of law firms. So yes, we have a TON of great stuff that we would love to share with you.

Now, It's Time to
Take the Pause

(your future-self wants you to do this )

We call it The Pause because it’s exactly that:

A moment to stop. To breathe. To look at what’s really going on beneath the surface of your firm — and in your thinking.

NO PITCH. NO PRESSURE. NO GIMMICKS.
NO CREDIT CARD REQUIRED.

Just clarity.

The Law Firm Diagnostic is not a pitch. It’s not a plan. It’s a moment of truth where we help you diagnose how to grow your law firm.

We’ve been doing this since 1999 and have helped start, manage & grow THOUSANDS of law firms. So yes, we have a TON of great stuff that we would love to share with you.
