7 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started My Law Firm (EP 190)
Episode Summary
In this episode of the Scalable Law Podcast, I share seven things I genuinely wish I had known before I started my law firm.
After building and running a practice for more than 12 years, navigating burnout, stepping into the CEO role, and ultimately selling my firm, I can now clearly see where I made things harder than they needed to be. These lessons are based on lived experience and are the same patterns I now see repeatedly through my work as a law firm coach.
If you are building, growing, or scaling a firm and want more profit and freedom, this episode will give you perspective on what really matters.
What You’ll Hear in This Episode
In this episode, I unpack:
- Why revenue growth does not automatically create freedom
- How you may be the biggest bottleneck in your own firm
- Why systems reduce decisions, not control
- The hidden cost of hiring without structure
- Why pricing problems are often confidence problems
- The difference between being busy and being productive
- Why your law firm should support your life, not compete with it
These are foundational lessons that can change the trajectory of your firm if applied early.
