Lawyer To Law Firm Owner: Your 8 week action plan
You know you want to open your own law firm.
But then you start thinking about everything involved:
Website. Clients. Marketing. Technology. Money. Systems. Networking.
And suddenly the dream starts to feel overwhelming. So you keep researching, watching videos, saving posts, and making lists.
But at some point, you have to stop collecting information and start building. That’s exactly why I created From Lawyer to Law Firm Owner.
Because what if you didn’t have to piece all of this together by yourself?
I created From Lawyer to Law Firm Owner to help you actually do it. It’s my live, 8-week group program designed specifically for lawyers who are ready to open their own law firms.
This isn’t eight weeks of sitting on Zoom taking notes about everything you should eventually do. We’re going to build. Every week, we’ll tackle another part of your law firm together.
You’ll make decisions. You’ll complete assignments. You’ll build the infrastructure. You’ll create your marketing plan. You’ll develop your referral strategy. You’ll set up your systems. And you’ll have direct access to me during our live group sessions to ask questions about the law firm you are building.
The goal is simple:
At the beginning: “I want to open my own law firm, but I’m not completely sure how.”
By the end: “I know what I’m building, who I’m serving, how I’m going to get clients, what technology I’m using, what my startup costs are, how my firm will operate, and what I need to do next.”
You’ll go from thinking like a lawyer who might someday open a firm to thinking like a law firm owner.
Program Begins: October 1, 2026 (we meet every Thursday from 11am PST-12:30pm PST from October 1- November 19 via Zoom)
Enrollment Closes: September 28, 2026
Investment:
Early Bird (September 14-September 21): $1,795
Full registration price: $1,995
Can’t make it live? No worries! Replays will be available for a limited time for you to catch up.
8 weeks. 8 live sessions.
One goal: Get your law firm built.
This is not a course you buy and never finish.
This is a live, hands-on program where we work through the process together.
By the end of the program, my goal is for you to know:
What your law firm looks like
Who you want to serve
How you plan to get clients
What technology you need
What your startup budget looks like
How your firm will operate
What you need to do next
You won’t just know more about starting a firm. You’ll have actually started building one.
This is the program I wish I had when I opened my law firm.
What we'll accomplish:
-
Choose your firm name, practice area, business structure, website, set up email, business plan, and ideal client.
-
Set up your marketing infrastructure, social media, calendar, and create your first several months of content.
-
Identify referral partners, strengthen existing relationships, create new connections, and build an outreach plan.
-
Create your startup budget, decide what technology and equipment you actually need, and avoid wasting money on things that can wait.
-
Set up your engagement process, digital files, client onboarding, templates, forms, and internal workflows.
-
Set your fees, a way to process payments, financial goals, launch priorities, and get ready to open your doors.
Who This Is For:
This program is for you if you:
Want to open your law firm in the next few months
Feel overwhelmed by where to start
Are worried about getting clients
Don’t feel confident about marketing
Want accountability and structure
Don’t want to reinvent the wheel
You do not need to have everything figured out before joining.
That’s the point. We’ll figure it out together.
After working together for 8 weeks, you will have a law firm that is open and ready to accept clients.
What You Get:
8 live group sessions with me
Weekly teaching and coaching
Live Q&A
Step-by-step action items
Templates and resources
Accountability
A clear roadmap from idea to launch
This is the difference between researching how to start a law firm and actually doing the work.
From Lawyer to Law Firm Owner is designed to help you stop planning your law firm and start creating it.

“I worked with Darcel while I was re-starting my solo law firm, and it was more than worth it! Darcel helped me identify concrete changes I could implement to make my law practice more efficient, effective, and profitable. Some of these issues called for a true mindset shift. Others were extremely concrete tasks that I had simply not acted on. Darcel was there to help me identify the changes that needed to be made, prioritize what I needed to do, and offer all the encouragement I needed to meet each objective. While our meetings felt like coffee with a friend, I came away from every session with a manageable list of goals to improve my effectiveness and profitability as a lawyer. I am just finishing my most profitable month yet, and I don't mind giving Darcel credit!”
