A Letter

The number a law firm owner never sees.

What each kind of work pays per owner hour, after collection. Revenue gets tracked by matter and by month, the economics live somewhere else entirely, and a firm can be busy and underpaid at the same time without ever learning why.

I built GrowthProLegal to put that number in front of the owners who need it. It runs on RIDA^™, a proprietary economic discipline I created and apply every day at my advisory practice, B.L. Sheets & Co. GrowthProLegal is that discipline, productized for solo and small law firms: Legal Growth Intelligence.

The constraint engine is where it starts. A four-minute conversation, answered in ranges from memory, and your binding constraint has a name. It surfaces structure and stops there. Often, the read argues for spending less.

Past the free scorecard sits the full discipline: a partial or full diagnostic, an architecture project, or a retainer. My own firms run on RIDA. A discipline you won't apply to yourself is a sales pitch.

If you own a firm and the revenue has stopped adding up to the effort, run the scorecard. It costs four minutes. Write me after, if the constraint it names is the one you've been circling.

P.S. I write The Billable Hour, a weekly letter on the economics of the one-owner firm. If reading comes first, start there.
