“Everyone is better off when your law firm is more profitable. No one is better off when your law firm is less profitable.” – RJon Robins, author of Profit First for Lawyers

If you’ve ever caught yourself saying, “It’ll be faster if I just do it myself,” this episode is for you. That is a trap many lawyers and business professionals fall into without even knowing it. The reality is that every hour spent on tasks beneath your role, whether it’s admin, paralegal work, or chasing invoices, impacts your law firms profits.

In this episode, RJon explains why profit depends on efficiency and why the most ethical, professional choice is making sure the right work goes to the right role. In a 2021 clip from a pre-book livestream, he shares memorable examples of why law firm owners cannot afford to do paralegal, receptionist, or admin tasks – even when it feels faster.
