Welcome
Thank you for visiting our website. Freedman Consulting was established in 1998 to provide a wide range of law firm consulting and practice management services. We will assist in identifying your firm’s needs, creating a strategic plan to achieve your goals, and referring and guiding a comprehensive array of trusted vendors.
My Focus
While our services are trusted by firms of all sizes, we specialize in offering tailored resources for solo practitioners and small to mid-sized law firms. Understanding the unique challenges these firms face, we’ve built a network of entrepreneurial vendors who are sensitive to both the specific needs and budget considerations of this important segment of the legal profession.
My Mission
Education is foremost. You don’t know what you don’t know. I am constantly writing and teaching (preaching?) about things not yet on your radar screen. I want you to learn and to identify problems before they become insurmountable. I want you to understand the marketplace and how it impacts you. Only then can you be strategic in your actions.
Problems fester unknown in the dark recesses. Tensions bubble unspoken under the surface of daily life. I work to bring them into the light where they can be addressed. I work to enable those difficult conversations and improve future communications.
Lawyers tend to be reactive. I can help you create proactive thinking. I can help you eliminate unnecessary worry, conflict and administrative headaches. I can help you define and achieve your goals for growth and profitability. And I want you to enjoy doing it. Life is entirely too short to do otherwise!
My Services
Freedman Consulting offered a full range of law practice management services during its first twenty years. However, services are now confined to those areas below, which are part of overall strategic planning.
You will find articles and other information on this website and in the Law Practice Management blog, which address issues in areas such as technology, records management, human resources management, financial management, risk management, and so forth.
We can refer you to well-vetted vendors and consultants for assistance in areas in which we no longer provide consulting services. There is no charge to you if we can assist you with a referral. Some vendors and consultants may provide us with a referral fee if you engage them. However, that will not influence our choice of recommendations.
We can help you create a realistic and achievable strategic plan which will provide for sustained growth and increased profits, expansion of a healthy client roster, and the development of effective marketing materials and related projects. We can help you identify threats and opportunities by utilizing strategic research. We can help you take advantage of both traditional and modern marketing techniques.
Our succession planning services ensure a seamless transition and continuity of your firm’s leadership. We identify and develop future leaders within your organization, creating a structured plan to guide the transfer of knowledge and responsibilities. Our approach safeguards your firm’s legacy and stability during leadership changes.
We support your firm through periods of organizational change with strategic planning and execution. Our expertise helps you navigate restructuring, mergers, and other significant transitions by minimizing disruptions and fostering a positive change culture. We ensure that your firm adapts smoothly and efficiently to new organizational landscapes..
Our best practice implementation services enhance your firm’s operational efficiency and effectiveness. We analyze current practices and identify areas for improvement, integrating industry-leading methods and processes. By adopting best practices, your firm can achieve higher standards of performance, client service and improved profitability.
