Problem: The fallacy of the mindset: It saves the firm money if we do it all ourselves.
PS&W’s success, like so many other law practices, grew from their hard work, dedication, and an outlook of “we do it all ourselves”. Like so many law firms in a growth cycle, PS&W reached a tipping point and became overwhelmed with day-to-day business operations in 2023.
They realized there was a major opportunity cost to the “we do it all ourselves” mentality.
Their path to success, while different in the details, also read like Legal Back Office’s origin story , where our founder ran into this same opportunity cost conundrum while growing her law practice. It's the reason she started LBO!
Sara’s Opportunity Cost formula link – If you as a law firm managing partner are spending 10 hours a week on administration, and your rate is $400/hour, that’s an opportunity cost of $4,000 per week, or $12,000 per month. LBO, on average, charges clients $3,000 to $5,000 per month for back office services. By outsourcing, you could make an additional $7,000 per month or $84,000 per year!
PS&W heard about LBO from another one of our clients and reached out to talk to LBO.
Each of our new client relationships starts with a zoom with our founder, and then progresses to a more in depth zoom with all of LBO’s service line directors. During that second zoom, we really dig in to see how LBO can solve your back office problems.
We understand that the business of law looks very different for each firm. LBO was created by lawyers for lawyers after all!
