One-on-One Coaching
Is coaching right for you? It may well be, if you are an attorney seeking:
• A consistent influx of new, quality “A” clients to your practice who you enjoy working with (and who pay your bills on time)
• Significantly increased productivity and/or billable hours (without working more hours)
• Reduced stress with boundaries and a more comfortable work/life balance
• An HR/staffing system that identifies and hires the best candidates for the job that are not only technically proficient but who are also a good “cultural fit” and possess the critical intangibles like
• Sound firm financial management systems including KPIs, scorecarding, Pareto analysis and firm budgeting
• “Big Picture” strategic planning

Whether your firm conducts an annual strategic retreat or you do not but recognize the need to get “out of the office” for both education and strategic planning, Phelps Legal Consulting can help. At Phelps Legal Consulting we apply a practical and proven methodology to help you work through your critical issues to create and implement a plan that works for your firm. We've been conducting firm retreats for more than 20 years. The following are just some of the questions we help firms address as a part of the planning session include:
• Do you have a plan to grow your business by 25-50% this year?
• Do you have a plan to develop a highly systematized practice (or practice groups)?
• Are you properly leveraged? (and if not, what is your plan to become properly leveraged?)
• How do we get the entire firm "pulling together" to execute on our plan?
We typically spend a day (or more) with the partners conducting a powerful session that will produce actionable tasks to help move the firm forward to desired results. Coming out of the session, firm shareholders will have a written action plan, tasks, task owners and completion dates with follow up to help you implement purposeful and intentional change in your firm.
Methodology:
• Confidential interview with each partner
• A DISC behavioral profile completed on each partner
• Comprehensive diagnostic w/ each partner leading to the creation and approval of an agenda designed to deal with your firm’s specific issues.
• Tangible deliverables/action plan
• Quarterly follow up on progress.

Will you continue to enjoy benefits from what you have built after you transition?
One of the most critical and time sensitive issues being discussed among law firm owners and shareholders in their 50's and 60's is how to exit their law practice in the next 10 to 15 years, and in a way that lets them:
• Harvest the value of what you have built up over the years
• Appraise the value of your practice
• Prepare the next generation to lead the firm and build a legacy
• Retain a productive role
Phelps Legal Consulting offers a “virtual course” for attorneys who have two to 10+ years until they plan to transition: How does the course work and when does it start?
In a private, one-on-one virtual course, an experienced law firm consultant will take you through a proven process of succession planning for attorneys. The course length is approximately 180 days and is typically delivered in two, one-hour dedicated sessions per month. It includes a set syllabus and accompanying materials and homework.
Contact us today with any questions or to register at 1-800-664-1264.

One of our most effective programs is Dominate Your Market, an advanced coaching program that will not only transform the way you practice law but also give you an enormous, lifelong competitive advantage. This program is aimed at lawyers who are already successful and entrepreneurial but want to be the absolute "go to" attorney in their market. Not interested in the status quo, these attorneys see a big future for themselves. They are coachable, energetic, and know how to make tough decisions and implement new ideas. The program is exclusive in that you must already be a highly successful practitioner to participate, but more importantly, direct competitors are not allowed on your team.
How It Works
During the four sessions per year, you'll work with knowledgeable coaches, transformational content, and a community of peers that will challenge you to bring out your best thinking, ideas, and strategies. With each session, the status quo – which your competitors are still focusing on – will be turned on its head. Between sessions, the Atticus support team and resource center will keep you focused and on target. You'll have an Atticus Program Advisor™, an Atticus Resource Advisor™, Advanced Implementation Tools™ (turn-key time management, marketing, staffing, cash flow systems), and a monthly call to energize your plans.
