Can You Protect Your Law Firm from Inflation?

Navigating Inflation: Protect Your Law Firm During Economic Shifts

Running a law practice during a booming economy often feels straightforward, with minimal effort required to keep things moving. But when economic conditions shift, and inflation takes hold, maintaining a thriving practice requires adaptability and innovation. Learn how to protect your law firm during turbulent economic times.

In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life®, Steve is joined by longtime friend and Atticus partner Glenn Finch to tackle the challenges attorneys face when rising expenses and stagnant wages affect both their teams and clients. Glenn brings a wealth of experience and a diverse background, including his roles as a Colonel in the Florida National Guard, a black belt martial artist, a master scuba diver, and a former Senior Pastor for three multi-staffed churches in Florida.

Together, Steve and Glenn share practical strategies to adapt your law practice to economic pressures, focusing on effective marketing approaches when clients tighten their budgets. With insights grounded in years of advising attorneys, they offer actionable steps to ensure your practice remains profitable, even in challenging times.
