Excerpt from the Workbook 7 Step Law Firm Business Plan:

 

A Paucity of Plans

There are a lot of reasons you won't find many decent law firm business plan templates around.

Everyone assumes that you know how to create a better one than they do.

Everyone assumes that you will sue them if it doesn't "work" (i.e., if it doesn't raise the financing you want).

Everyone assumes that you are too rich to need a business plan.

Fortunately, we have worked with enough law firms to know that this simply ain't necessarily so.

We accept that lawyers are very smart. We accept that lawyers are probably pretty rich. And we trust that lawyers won't both suing a measly little business like ours.

We also know there are some very valid reasons why your business would need financing, such as

  • You and a few others are breaking away from an existing firm, forming your own law firm. The upfront costs associated with this can be horrendous.
  • Your firm has been successful, and now you are ready to expand.
  • Your 4 to 6 month delay in cash flow has slowed down even more, and you need a boost until you can put your fix-it plan into action.
  • You are in the middle of huge case, one paid on contingency, and have extraordinary costs to cover in the interim. (Yes, this is probably the hardest one to fund.)

Whether your firm is involved in

  • Administrative and government law
  • Antitrust and trade regulation law
  • Bankruptcy law
  • Corporate, partnership and business law
  • Criminal law
  • Debt collection law
  • Divorce and family law
  • Environmental law
  • Immigration and naturalization law
  • Labor and employment law
  • Malpractice and negligence law
  • Patent, trademark and copyright law
  • Product liability law
  • Real estate law
  • Securities law
  • Taxation law
  • Will, estate and trust law
  • General practice law office

... or even a law library, there are key elements that must appear in your business plan.

The Real Stumbling Blocks

More than most business plans, yours needs to present some very specialized information, such as:

SPECIALTY NICHE

  • What do you really do?
  • Is there a market for this niche?
  • How do you know?

... (and 4 more stumbling blocks)

WHAT THEY WON’T ASK

Few bankers will actually come out and ask ...

I write everything like a brief.  Hey, that's what I do!  So I gave your stuff to my assistant, and she put together the business plan.  I was impressed.  [Don't tell her -- I don't want her to think she can become a business plan writer!]

The business end of running a law firm just isn't something they teach at Harvard, so I am very glad that I discovered your publication.

Another partner and I just broke away and formed our own immigration law firm.  The 7 Steps really helped us get started in the right direction.  We even discovered we needed less money than we originally anticipated.
