In this eye-opening episode on the topic of accounts receivable, we are joined by financial expert Darren Wurz. Darren is the managing partner at Wurz Financial Services and author of “The Lawyer Millionaire.” He shares practical and actionable insights on managing accounts receivable (A/R) in law firms.
To find out why some law firm owners have A/R, Darren explains the psychology behind money, why it’s often a taboo topic, and how to reset our money mindset. He encourages law firm owners to take action to properly manage A/R to banish lost opportunity cost and embrace law firm growth and profitability.
“If there is A/R that’s sitting out there, it needs to be part of your workflow. It needs to be a priority on your schedule. So schedule time during your week either you or members of your team are going to call or going to follow up with those clients and try to get that money collected.” – Darren Wurz
