What If Your Law Firm Ran Like a Startup? | Manny Griffiths

What can a law firm learn from a tech startup?

In this episode, I sit down with Manny Griffiths, CEO and co-founder of Hona, to talk about how his journey, from selling pest control door to door to building a 67-person legal tech company, is full of lessons for law firm owners looking to grow without burning out.

We talk about:

  • The real-world use cases for AI in law firms (including after-hours lead capture)
  • Why “automate the redundant to empower the personal” is more than a catchy phrase
  • How to hire and fire with clarity, and why doing both faster might save your culture
  • What pain journaling is, and how it’s boosting settlement values for personal injury firms

Manny also opens up about Hona’s early days: working out of his basement, building a sales team through a window, and how venture capital changed their growth trajectory.
