The Managing Attorney's Role in a Family Law Firm

The second most important role in a family law firm is the managing attorney.

In the vast majority of family law firms, the founder/owner sits in two seats: (1) the president and (2) the managing attorney.

The president sets the strategy, casts the vision, models the culture, and many other “presidential” type things.

The managing attorney leads the lawyers and legal support staff. These teammates coach lawyers, engage clients, and fulfill the firm’s promises.

This show is about how founders can move out of the managing attorney role, thus opening up the firm for growth.
