“When we implement Profit First accounting principles in your law firm, we begin by deciding ahead of time what percentage of every dollar of revenue we’re going to scoop off the top and protect for you and your family.”
If your law firm feels like it eats cash faster than you can make it, you’re not wrong. The traditional approach to law firm finances is completely backwards. In this episode we are making the case for why you should stop procrastinating and finally take your profits first. RJon Robins, author of Profit First for Lawyers, explains why the typical formula of “sell as much as you can, pay everyone else first, keep whatever’s left over” simply doesn’t work for entrepreneurial law firm owners who want to be profitable on purpose.
