In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Patrick, the founder, and Austin, a key recruiter, discuss their insights on aligning interests with clients, simplifying job descriptions, and coordinating the hiring process for long-term success.

Navigating the Complexities of Prenups and Law Firm Growth | Sarah Jacobs 39:42

39:42

In a new episode of the Tip of the Law podcast, host Joe Giovannoli sat down with Sarah Jacobs , the co-founder of Jacobs Berger, LLC , a leading matrimonial law firm in New Jersey. Their discussion delved into the increasingly prevalent world of prenuptial agreements, exploring the shifting perceptions and driving factors behind this legal tool. Key Takeaways: 1. Prenuptial agreements are becoming more commonplace, driven by both younger and older generations seeking to protect individual assets, not just family wealth. The reasons for this include destigmatization and people entering marriages with more personal assets. 2. Drafting effective prenups requires careful consideration of complex factors like state laws, trust structures, business ownership, and potential future changes in lifestyle and income. Well-drafted prenups are less susceptible to later challenges. 3. Law firms, like other businesses, face challenges in areas like data analysis, financial management, HR, and employee motivation that are not typically covered in legal education. Developing these business skills is crucial for law firm growth and success. 4. Building a strong firm culture aligned with the firm's mission and values, as well as fostering positive client relationships, can lead to happy employees and clients, creating a virtuous cycle for the business.…

By preparing junior attorneys for client-facing roles from an early stage, through training, networking event attendance, and hands-on experience, you set them up for successful professional development.…

Mastering Law Firm Leadership and Strategic Planning | John Remsen Jr. 41:52

41:52

In this episode of Tip of the Law, host and founder of 9Sail Joe Giovannoli sits down with John Remsen Jr. , a seasoned consultant in law firm leadership and management, to discuss the critical role of strategic planning in the legal industry. Drawing from his experience working with over 475 law firms, John shares actionable advice on fostering change, overcoming resistance, and leading firms into the future. Key Takeaways: Strategic planning is crucial for law firms, but many struggle to implement it effectively. Only about 40% of mid-sized firms have a written strategic plan, and those that do often give it a "C+" grade for implementation. Overcoming lawyer resistance to change is a major challenge. Senior lawyers often resist strategic planning efforts, preferring to maintain the status quo. Empowering younger, high-potential lawyers to take on leadership roles can help drive change. Hiring non-lawyer professionals like COOs and marketing directors can significantly improve law firm efficiency and implementation of strategic initiatives. However, lawyers are often reluctant to cede control to non-lawyers. Maintaining firm culture and adapting to remote/hybrid work models are ongoing concerns for law firms. Strategic planning needs to address these evolving workplace dynamics.…

Romano discusses his transition from big law to building a business law firm that prioritizes client communication, talent retention, and innovative thinking. Key Takeaways: Hiring and retaining top talent ("A players") is critical for scaling a professional services firm like a law firm. The "always be hiring" mentality and thorough vetting process are important. Adopting an entrepreneurial mindset and continuously challenging assumptions is crucial for a law firm leader, rather than just focusing on the practice of law. Embracing innovation and change is key. Emphasizing clear, responsive communication and follow-up is a differentiator in the legal industry and important for both client service and the hiring process.…

In the latest episode of Tip of the Law, Joe Giovannoli , CEO of 9Sail , is joined by Mike Mellor , founder of 742advisors , to discuss how law firms can prevent revenue leakage and improve operational efficiency. The conversation covers topics such as inefficient processes, technology integration, and the cultural changes necessary for implementing lasting solutions. Key Takeaways: Revenue leakage and inefficient processes: Law firms experience significant revenue leakage due to inefficient processes, such as recreating pitches, lack of centralized data, and poor coordination between teams. Importance of data organization and technology: Implementing the right technology solutions, like CRM systems and experience management platforms, can help law firms streamline operations, improve win rates, and reduce revenue leakage. However, firms need to be strategic in their approach and tailor solutions to their specific needs. Cultural change and buy-in: Driving change in law firms requires overcoming cultural resistance and getting buy-in from partners and associates. Firms need to create frictionless experiences, build trust, and demonstrate the value of new processes and technologies. Practice area-specific approaches: A one-size-fits-all approach to marketing and technology often falls short in law firms. Firms should consider the unique needs and dynamics of different practice areas and develop customized solutions to address their specific challenges.…

In the latest episode of the Tip of the Law podcast, host Joe Giovannoli , CEO and founder of 9Sail , interviews Charley Mann, founder of Law Firm Alchemy . Charley specializes in coaching law firm owners to maximize their practice’s potential as a business. Their conversation ranges over essential strategies for law firm leaders, focusing on self-management, effective delegation, and the importance of proactive business development. Key Takeaways: Developing a personal modus operandi and self-management skills is crucial for law firm leaders, alongside implementing practice management systems like EOS. Ignoring personal development can lead to issues like elevating unqualified people to leadership positions too early. Delegation and determining roles is critical for law firms, especially those with multiple partners of similar stature. Conducting "start, stop, continue" conversations can help establish open communication and address challenges. Law firm owners need to be willing to invest in the growth of their practice, even if it means sacrificing some of their current lifestyle. Overcoming this barrier is key to scaling the business. Don’t underestimate the importance of making the ask and being proactive in business development and marketing. Law firm owners need to take initiative, follow up with potential clients, and not wait for opportunities to come to them. This entrepreneurial mindset and willingness to put themselves out there is crucial for the growth and success of a law firm.…

They talk about setting clear expectations for marketing goals, managing client relationships, and the importance of personal branding for attorneys. Here’s a detailed recap of their insightful conversation. Key Takeaways: Agencies and law firms need to set clear expectations upfront about goals, metrics, and what success looks like. Both sides need to be on the same page. Agencies should not ignore red flags or take on clients with unrealistic expectations just to chase revenue. They should be willing to walk away from bad fits. Law firms should review their progress towards goals for the first half of the year and make necessary adjustments. Attorneys should also consider building their personal brand on LinkedIn to showcase their expertise.…

Lynn shares her unique journey in the legal industry and offers practical insights into effective legal marketing and business development strategies.

Asking "why" five times gets to the underlying reasons for problems. Providing lawyers with the insights, information, and tools they need can help address the challenge of lack of lawyer engagement in business development.

Howard shares his journey into employment law, his passion for working with wolfdogs, and practical strategies for effective employee onboarding and engagement. Key Takeaways: Effective onboarding of new employees is critical but often overlooked, especially in law firms. It takes 12-18 months for new hires to truly learn the culture and be productive.
