Business Education for the Entrepreneurial Lawyer
This three-month long program is designed for entrepreneurial lawyers, solo practitioners or newly formed solo/small firms looking to strategically and sustainably scale and modernize their law practice. This comprehensive business education and development program contains distinct units of study including business planning, marketing, solo/small firm finance and budgeting, client service and experience, ethical considerations and outsourcing and leveraging technology.
Program Commitment:
Participants will have weekly assignments or activities that could include self-guided work, roundtables with experts, small group activities and discussions or video training courses. Weekly assignments will need to be completed from the end of July through the beginning of October, and participants should be prepared to set aside 2-3 hours each week throughout the duration of the program in order to complete the assigned tasks. The live Zoom component for 2026 will take place on Wednesdays at 11am CT/12pm ET. By the end of the program, we hope participants walk away with a strategic plan, access to tools and resources and the ability to leverage technology in order to enhance their lawyer life.
