FAQ's
What is the benefit of using a law firm management consultant? |
Answer
Working with a law firm management company offers firms an unbiased and experienced perspective on areas that are currently driving success and areas that, with changes, will help you reach your goals. An experienced law firm consultant has worked in and with many law firms and can bring this experience and resources to your firm. |
Does MB Law help with shorter term projects? |
Answer
Absolutely! We understand that often law firms have challenges that require immediate attention. We are happy to jump in, evaluate the root cause of the challenge, share recommendations, and implement chosen solutions. |
Will MB Law handle our day-to-day operations? |
Answer
This is one of our areas of expertise. As part of our Fractional Executive Director services, we first learn how you are currently managing operations, document, and then manage these responsibilities while continuing to make needed changes to achieve efficiency. We work with your existing team with a focus on bringing best practices to your Firm. Think of us as your fractional “part-time” Executive Manager, identifying areas to prioritize and overseeing implementation. |
How much time typically does the Partner have to devote to working with a consulting firm? |
Answer
At MB Law Firm Consulting, we recommend an allocation of 2 to 3 hours per week during the kick-off and onboarding phase. We follow a defined process that ensures efficiency with a focus on establishing clear objectives and then reporting on progress. We also tailor our process as needed to accommodate the time availability of our clients. We strive to work with other members of the firm to gather information, further freeing up attorney time. We understand that time is valuable and finite. We balance our clients’ time commitment to the project with the return on investment they will receive for their time. |
