I coach lawyers on business development, leadership and career strategy. My clients achieve concrete goals like bringing in new clients, expanding their firms, making partner, breaking into new practice areas, increasing profitability, successfully navigating office politics, and creating better work-life balance. I combine a deep knowledge of the legal industry, business development best practices, and management with 21 years training leaders and coaches in personal growth and development.
I use my knowledge to help clients with strategy and choosing the most advantageous approach to their business problems. However, the biggest challenge most lawyers face is not acquiring the knowledge or making the plan, but rather, fine tuning their approach and overcoming obstacle to implementation. I am a sounding board and a strategic partner, helping clients gain clarity and achieve their goals.
As a lawyer coach, I work exclusively with attorneys, which means that I understand the basic dynamics of your work environment.

As a lawyer, I combine expertise in the legal environment with twenty years experience coaching on personal growth and development.
Most of the challenges lawyers face regarding leadership and business development and career are only superficially about what actions to take or how to "do it right."
I do tap into my subject matter expertise to offer guidance or advice when it is appropriate.
