"I've had a very successful practice for 40 years and want to practice for about 5 more. I still enjoy being a lawyer, but quite frankly, coming into the office on some days and dealing with certain problematic files was becoming an emotional drain. Roy was able to give me the needed motivation and encouragement to "clean up" these cases and get them off my plate sooner rather than later. He also held me accountable to maintain the type of practice mix going forward that is the most profitable and enjoyable. In short, he helped me refocus my entire thought process about my practice and "coach" me in this continuing process." "I am a family law attorney on my own. Roy provided invaluable input and resources to market my practice more effectively and to address my challenges with billing and collection issues. Working with him has re-energized my practice and has significantly increased revenue during tough economic times." "I own a very successful small law firm. We make plenty of money, our clients are well served, and coming to work every day is a joy. Roy is my idea starter for the marketing and management of this firm. His fresh perspective, periodic input, and ability to keep me focused have proven to be invaluable." "I check in with Roy every month or two. Initially, our sessions focused on getting me to network in the right places with the right people. After a while, many of our sessions began to concentrate on managing my busy practice including supervising the associates who work on my files, client service issues, and communicating more effectively with my firm's management about my professional and personal goals. However, what I have appreciated most from Roy's coaching is his ability to make me look weeks or months forward to anticipate the needs of my practice. By forcing me to think ahead, I've been able to eliminate certain problems, or when some issues can't be avoided, I am not caught off guard and am prepared to face them." "I met Roy when he spoke at our state bar annual convention. My firm has more clients than it can handle so I didn't need his marketing expertise. What I was looking for in a coach was someone who could be a trusted business advisor. Roy helped me with billing, personnel, website and case management issues. However, perhaps his biggest strength was his ability to force me to prioritize what I need to do to run my firm effectively." |
