PARDON US FOR SAYING

but you look a little stressed.

A little exhausted.

A little burned out.

WE KNOW YOU. WE’VE BEEN YOU.

We know that you chose to start your own law firm because you value freedom.

And in your visions of being a solo law firm owner, freedom looked a lot different.  You weren’t chained to your desk, working too many hours for not enough money and you saw your family regularly and remembered your kids’ names.

If you‘ve landed on this page, odds are you’ve found out the hard way that law school didn’t teach you a damn thing about running your own firm.

You never took a class on sales and marketing. You never took a class on team management or company culture or how to generate cashflow at every stage of growth.

And now here you are, starting to wonder if it’s ever going to be worth it.

First, give yourself a break. It’s not your fault. You’re a great lawyer. The problem is that you also need to be a great entrepreneur, and that’s the secret no one prepared you for.

But we will.

Which Stage of Growth Are You In?

Discover the strategy you must implement in order to get your law firm to the next level.

Our Members will tell you we’re famous for …

All of this and more really is possible for you. And all in only about 18 months.

It’s simple. It just takes a focused strategy and the willingness to do what you’ve haven’t done yet—put the right steps in the right order.

Why Now Is The Time.

Well, how much longer do you want to wait to be happy, financially secure and enjoying the freedom lifestyle you want to live?

How much longer do you want to leave your fate and the fate of your firm and family to chance?

You see, every law firm on the planet goes through six stages of growth. Most small law firms fail because they don’t know the best revenue generating strategy for the stage they are in. If you don’t get clear on this now, you will wake up a year from now in the exact same place, working the same long hours for the same dissatisfying paycheck.

When you do, you’ll understand how we’ve been able to get massive, consistent results for our members, year after year.

It doesn’t matter which area of law you practice in. It doesn’t matter if your firm is in a small town or a big city. It doesn’t matter if you’re tall or short, left-handed or right-handed or even if you’ve never built a highly-successful law firm before.

If you’re ready to leave all of your excuses behind, roll up your sleeves, learn & implement, implement, implement, then you could see anywhere from a 100% to a ___% jump in profit in just 18 months.

Stop Trying To Figure This Out On Your Own.

You passed the BAR, so we can safely assume that you’re a highly intelligent person.

Intelligent people take action, make quick decisions and are self-aware enough to
know when it’s time to get new help and a fresh strategy.

How to Manage a Small Law Firm has acted as a life line for hundreds of entrepreneurial lawyers who all had something in common:

They were stuck, frustrated and tired of the bullshit. And most importantly, they were ready to take control and get on track once and for all.

We understand the challenges you face. This company was created by lawyers, for lawyers.

Because you shouldn’t have to choose between your firm and your family.

You shouldn’t have to sacrifice your health and your free time just to keep the lights on.

You may be thinking that a million-dollar law firm is out of reach for you. But 350+ of our members who have hit the million-dollar mark or are on track to will tell you that a little skepticism is welcome here. We enjoy proving you wrong.

This is for you if you are ready to become part of powerful community where inspired, entrepreneurial-minded law firm owners find knowledge, support, accountability, and practical, proven business solutions that grow their firms and change their lives!

We gather 4 times a year in gorgeous cities across the United States to level-up, brainstorm, strategize and have fun.

We laugh. We share.
We teach. We lovingly kick your ass. We clap the loudest when you GROW.

We know there’s no shortage of resources out there. There’s no shortage of things you can google.

But we also know, from talking to thousands of lawyers every year that you are leaving money on the table. We know you’re likely wasting time on tasks that will never have a positive impact on your bottom line and are distracting you from what you do best.

We also know that your specific stage of growth dictates what cashflow strategy will work best for you. It changes as your law firm evolves, and a simple cookie-cutter approach won’t work for you.

And that’s a factor no google search or excel spreadsheet can address.

You need, and deserve, a strategy that is customized to the personal, professional and financial goals that support the life you want to live.

You want to buy a dream house? We want you to buy it.

You need a vacation? We want you to take it.

Your goals matter to us. Because when you get happy, wealthy and free?

…WE LOOK GOOD

Starting to think that this might be exactly what you need?

“It’s been one year so in this one year since joining the program my gross revenues grew 48%. The best thing I did was create systems so that I could offload the burden of everything that I was carrying on my own shoulders and develop a team.

This program is brought out incredible richness within myself, and not only monetary riches but also inner riches. Part of that comes from the freedom of not having to carry everything all the time”

-Michael Cohen, Michael H Cohen Law Group, Palo Alto, CA

“Before I joined How To Manage, I had gotten pretty far in my life, you know at a very young age, but I had no clue how.

You’re not going to join this and hope that in 12 months you have a 7-figure firm. This is not a magic pill. You’re gonna work harder than you ever have before but you’re going to work harder on the smart things or the things that are going to drive you forward and move you forward and not just grinding and getting nowhere.”

-Sara Khaki, Atlanta Divorce Law Group & The Khaki Law Firm, Atlanta, GA

“It gives me goosebumps thinking about it. You laid out how to grow a million dollar a firm on paper… This was October 2014 and October of 2017 is exactly when we hit it.

We’re just going to keep doing it and I don’t lose sleep anymore, my stress level has plummeted, I’ve finally become very relaxed and I feel great about where the firm is headed and comfortable that whatever happens, we can handle.”

-Brett Trembly, Trembly Law Firm, Miami, FL

“When we first joined, I think the biggest myth was, ‘we’re different, we practice immigration law what they’re teaching us really doesn’t apply to us. Maybe for other types of law.’ That was the biggest one, and at the end of the day we found out that know what we’re learning is how to create a successful business.”

-Alfredo Lozano, The Lozano Law Firm, San Antonio, TX

“My firm had been just growing just growing by dribs and drabs, and I wanted to have more profit from my business so I could do more for my family. When I started I was $340,000 and now I’m at $665,000, which is close to double what I did two years ago.

When I joined I thought having a $1,000,000 firm was completely ridiculous. ‘That’s not possible for me to have a $1,000,000 firm.’ And now my goal is to have a 1.2 million dollar firm.”

-Lisa Speaker, Speaker Law Firm, Lansing, MI
