#28 - Law Firm Entrepreneur Jennifer Gore-Cuthbert on Building a Practice and Smashing Growth Plateaus
Show Notes

Jennifer Gore-Cuthbert's journey is wildly inspiring.  Our conversation is loaded with valuable insights on how to build a firm from nothing to a flourishing practice.  

Jennifer's path wasn't smooth.  She faced the daunting challenge of failing the bar exam while pregnant and then managing a startup firm with a newborn. 

Immediately after passing the bar exam, Jennifer started her law firm from her spare bedroom.   The firm has grown exponentially over the years and is an Atlanta powerhouse today--led by an absolute force in the legal community!

In this conversation, Jennifer shares her insights on how she:
- Started the firm with a tenacious mindset
- Used her networking skills to get her first clients
- Managed cash flow with contingency cases in the early days
- Focuses on personal growth leveraging coaching and mastermind groups
- Deals with the complexities of hiring and managing a team
- Transitioned the firm away from her personal brand to one more scalable
- Optimizes her time by only doing tasks in her sweet spot and outsourcing the rest

and so much more . . . 

Enjoy!

I’m here to share my law firm’s secrets, tactics, and strategies of how we have grown from 0 to 25 attorneys and over $15m in revenue in our first nine years.

Yes! It’s true--even if you compete directly with us. I want to tell you the gritty truth on what worked, what failed, and where we are aiming next.

Here’s why.

My teammates and I envision transforming how family law clients are served.

And we can’t transform the practice of law all by ourselves. We need more lawyers growing their practice, kicking butt / taking names, and winning along with us.

So, follow me and ring that bell up top to get all my latest disclosures.

I also love me some fishin’ as often as I can. It’s also occasionally fun to catch a fish too!
