Growing a family law team is hard - especially when lawyers have no clear path forward. In this episode, I sit down with Robin Esch, our HR leader, to explore how we've solved one of the most vexing problems in scaling a law firm: developing attorneys from associates to partners. 

Robin shares:

  • The innovative competency matrix that removes subjectivity from promotions
  • How this tool creates clarity for lawyers at every stage of their careers
  • The collaborative assessment process between attorneys and managing partners
  • The unexpected benefit of helping non-fits "raise their hand" rather than forcing difficult exits

Listen in to learn how this system has transformed our ability to develop lawyers with consistency while creating a sense of fairness and ownership. As Robin puts it, lawyers feel both excitement about having a career path and relief knowing expectations won't be a moving target. Hope this helps you grow your practice!
