When you Opened your own law firm, your dream was to:
- Build a thriving, prosperous law practice
- Serve great clients and do great work
- Make a good living
Does that sound like your reality right now or, is something missing?
Unfortunately most attorneys in small law firms are suffering burnout more than living their dreams. Our goal is to help you finally experience what you dreamed in law school. We help the small law firm become a thriving law practice by showing you how to make it prosperous and predictable.
Here at Richard James, we believe that systems run your law practice and people run your systems.
OUR MISSION
You need systems to run your law firm and people to run your systems.
We have found that there are 6 core systems that determine whether your law practice is functioning at an optimal level:
- Operations
- Leadership
- Financials
- Marketing
- Sales
- Mindset
When these six systems are functioning at a high level, the unique processes we use to dial in their execution are as follows:
3 pillars for creating a system:
Data=Domination:
Harvesting every single piece of info about everything every single time. This equips you to make smarter decisions.
Inspect what you expect:
Three things are happening in your firm right now. What you want to happen, what you think is happening and what is actually happening
Automation:
Replace yourself in your firm, using software and staff, one role at a time until you are free!

What Attorneys Like You Are Saying
“I began with just getting the basic lead sources and tracking my numbers. Once I started that, I started understanding I had some control of my life. That I could control where I could get marketing, where I could get leads, and how I could bring new people in. Then it all became easier for me.”
Attorney Andrew Griffin, El Cajon, CA
“"I was in a larger firm than I have now, we were not profitable, I was losing my mind and really looking for a way to grow sensibly and to keep my sanity. We’re not quite there yet, but we’re not insane anymore. I don’t work all weekend, we’re turning a profit, we’ve shrank and then grown again in a way that makes sense for my practice, and I sleep at night."”
