Law Firm Economics: The Business of Law Ascent

The practice of law has changed significantly over the last 15 years, and the rate of that change has increased dramatically since the 2008 Recession, creating a “New Normal.” To be successful in the New Normal, attorneys and professional staff at every firm must master the business of law as well as the practice of law. Considered best-in-class nationally, Mountaintop’s The Business of Law Ascent offers an introduction to the factors that impact profitability for law firms. Participants will learn how to assess the profitability of their work and practical tips to enhance the long-term financial sustainability of the firm.
