I’m here to share my law firm’s secrets, tactics, and strategies of how we have grown from 0 to 25 attorneys and over $15m in revenue in our first nine years.
Yes! It’s true--even if you compete directly with us. I want to tell you the gritty truth on what worked, what failed, and where we are aiming next.
Here’s why.
My teammates and I envision transforming how family law clients are served.
And we can’t transform the practice of law all by ourselves. We need more lawyers growing their practice, kicking butt / taking names, and winning along with us.
So, follow me and ring that bell up top to get all my latest disclosures.

I also love me some fishin’ as often as I can. It’s also occasionally fun to catch a fish too!
