In this video, I share a powerful 5-step framework that has helped us build Sterling Lawyers into a $15 million family law firm with 25+ attorneys. This strategic approach to growing a successful family law practice will help you make better decisions and allocate resources more effectively, whether you're just starting out or feeling stuck in your current growth.

I've learned what truly works through both triumph and painful mistakes. In this video, I reveal how we applied Professor Saras Sarasvathy's entrepreneurial framework specifically to family law firm development and sustainable growth.

Learn the five critical principles for expanding your family law practice:

1 - The Bird in the Hand Principle: Start with what you have
I reveal how we leveraged our digital marketing skills to grow our family law firm despite having no legal reputation or network when starting. Discover how to identify and build upon your unique strengths to develop a distinctive family law practice rather than copying competitors.

2 - The Affordable Loss Principle: Take calculated steps
Learn from my expensive mistakes in scaling a family law practice by making big bets instead of controlled experiments. See how small, incremental tests in marketing, staffing, and technology implementation can protect your growing law firm while still driving expansion.

3 - The Lemonade Principle: Embrace surprises
Discover how we turned COVID challenges into opportunities that transformed our entire family law practice model. Building a resilient law firm means learning how client complaints, unexpected case turns, and market shifts can become your greatest teachers.

4 - The Crazy Quilt Principle: Build strategic partnerships
I share my biggest regret in growing our family law firm - waiting nine years to build relationships with other law firm owners. Learn how to create a powerful network of professionals who serve your client base to accelerate law firm development instead of obsessing over competitors.

5 - The Pilot in the Plane Principle: Focus on what you control
See how emphasizing internal processes, team training, and adaptable strategies for family law firm growth helped us expand by 18% during COVID when others were contracting. Learn to make decisions based on current reality rather than uncertain future predictions when building your practice.

Whether you're a solo practitioner looking to expand or managing multiple attorneys in a growing family law practice, this framework provides actionable insights to help you build a sustainable, scalable family law firm that outperforms the competition while avoiding common growth pitfalls.
