What if trying to help everyone is the very thing keeping your law firm from growing?

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill challenge the myth that more is better — more practice areas, more clients, more complexity. Instead, they reveal why clarity, consistency, and restraint are the real drivers of sustainable growth.

From the $10M rule to the art of saying “no,” this episode is a practical blueprint for law firm owners ready to scale without spreading themselves — or their teams — too thin.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

Why the best cases go to the best marketers

What the $10M rule means for your expansion plans

Why generalists struggle to grow — and how specialists win

The real impact of saying “no” to misaligned clients

How focus helps you build authority and trust

If you’re ready to scale your firm without losing focus, this episode will challenge you to lead with clarity, say no with confidence, and grow where it matters most.
