Attorney Kent Berk thought he’d reached the other side.
His firm was thriving. He’d built a great team. He was finally enjoying the freedom he’d worked years to create.
Then, within days, three key employees were gone.
In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Kent returns to share what happened next. Together, he and Steve Riley unpack the hard lessons that followed, why the setback forced Kent to rethink his role in the firm, and how it ultimately changed the way he leads.
This isn’t just a conversation about losing employees. It’s about what happens when the business you’ve built suddenly forces you to look at it differently.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re spending your time on the right things, or what it really takes to build a law firm that lasts, this episode is worth a listen.
