Law Firm Owner or Glorified Babysitter?
Communication breakdowns
As your team grows, it’s impossible to keep up with who’s doing what, and when. Enter slack messages, emails, and post-it note piles. It’s all too much noise.
training troubles
Rapid growth can sometimes mean you don’t have time to train new employees, causing client complaints. Meaning, you end up doing the work you hired people to do.
Delegation Difficulties
You’re struggling with delegation, either holding onto tasks you should pass on or assigning tasks to team members who aren’t best suited for them.
Law firm growth is great
But when your team sounds more off-key than your shower singing, it’s time for a team intervention.

I was hiring people, yet still doing the work. I couldn’t understand what I was doing wrong until I hired Nermin.
In the first session with Nermin, we mapped out my current law firm structure. had other partners and an office manager, and a COO, but no one knew who to go to, so everyone would come to me.Visually seeing how everyone was coming to me with every problem they had helped me understand why I was still in the weeds and unable to hit our revenue targets. I Nermin helped me create a new organizational structure that allowed me to focus on my growth tasks, while delegating everything else, along with a process for delegation so I wouldn’t be constantly bombarded with questions.

Role Clarity & Accountability Metrics:
Beyond just a standard organizational chart, I’d want clear descriptions of each team member’s role and responsibilities. How does their role contribute to the firm’s success? What are their specific accountabilities, and how will they be measured?
Effective Communication Framework
How should team members communicate? What tools or platforms should be used for what purposes? Establish guidelines for effective communication, ensuring the right balance between formal meetings, informal check-ins, and digital communications.
Training & Onboarding Blueprint:
For any new hires or role transitions, there should be a comprehensive onboarding plan. This would ensure every team member is equipped with the knowledge and tools they need to succeed in their role.
How much is your peace of mind worth?
How about the cost of the stress? And the cost of the time away from your family? And that expensive team you have (where you’re still doing the work yourself). Probably more than whatever I charge for Team SOS. TIMES TWO.
Don’t be that law firm owner.
I’ve hired leadership coaches before, but Nermin’s approach with my team was different.
She set out a list of KPIs and monthly targets for every team member so we could stay on task and actually grow. Having those KPIs was crucial because it was built off of my revenue goal, and each team member finally understood how much they needed to do so that we could collectively hit our goals. Having those KPIs also helped me see: who were my stars, and who needed a little more support.
