For family law firms

Eliminate uncertainty. Run your family law firm on facts.

Every family law firm loses money in the same few places: leads that never retain, hours that never get billed, and invoices that never get paid. The Family Law Profit Diagnostic finds out how much your firm is losing, where, and what to do first to get it back.

  • Fixed price.
  • About 4 hours of your time.
  • Results in 6 weeks.

Where the money goes

Leads that never become clients

You’re paying for calls and form fills. But do you know which sources actually turn into retained clients, how fast your team follows up, or how many consultations walk out the door?

Work that never becomes cash

Unbilled time, write-downs, and fees that are billed but never collected. When retainers run dry mid-matter, the work keeps going and the money stops.

Matters that cost more than they pay

Some case types and fee structures make money. Others lose it. Without the numbers, it’s hard to tell which is which until the year is over.

Five questions we’ll answer with your own data

Your data lives in different systems that don’t talk to each other. We use the data you have scattered across those disconnected systems to give you clarity so you can take action.

  1. Which marketing actually pays?Which lead sources produce clients who retain and pay, not just clients who call.
  2. How many good leads are slipping away?Your intake-to-retainer rate, and where in the process prospects drop off.
  3. Which matter types are profitable?Custody, divorce, modifications, support: what each one really earns after the hours that go into it.
  4. Where is cash getting stuck?Matters that have stalled, unbilled time, and fees you’ve billed but haven’t collected.
  5. How is your team’s time really being spent?Which timekeepers are most and least profitable, and why.

What you get

The Family Law Profit Diagnostic is a short, fixed-scope pilot engagement that turns your practice, billing, and intake data into 5 concrete deliverables that help you make smarter decisions and improve profitability.

  • A live dashboard built from the systems you already use, such as Clio / MyCase / Smokeball / QuickBooks.
  • A findings report with each opportunity ranked by dollar impact.
  • An action plan that tells you what to fix first, second, and third.
  • A validation workbook that ties every number back to your records, so you can trust the results.
  • A findings review with firm leadership to walk through the results and answer questions.
