Originally presented on: August 14, 2019

Legal industry publications continue to report the same desires and concerns for lawyers. They want to make more in revenue and income but are facing rate pressures and the need to maintain quality service. There are several critical components to running the business side of your practice in a way that helps you achieve the best financial and organizational results. Utilizing the tips from this CLE will help you:

• Focus your time spent where you add the most value

• Develop a plan for success that will help you set and actually achieve goals

• Fully leverage the power of technology

Outline:

1. Measuring your practice should stretch beyond the billed hour to gain perspective on the true health and potential of your firm. Learn how to know your firm's performance data can help you focus your efforts on maximizing every dollar!

2. You won't arrive at success on time or arrive at all without a map to where you are going. If you want to make more money, you must execute a well thought out plan to do so.

3. Fully leverage the power of technology in your practice. Work smarter not harder to improve your top and bottom line.
