093: Case Study - Streamlined

Your Law Firm is a Business. Take it to the Next Level

In this episode, we have Marissa Portuondo from streamlined.legal to discuss one particular firm's journey to improving its intake process. The case studies involve real, small to mid-sized law firms that were struggling with their growth, intake, employee management, and more. With streamlined.legal’s help, these firms have been able to take beneficial action toward success, and we are now able to learn by hearing about their progress.

We are coming up on our 100th episode and second anniversary of Your Law Firm Is a Business – but we need your help. To celebrate, we want to add another 200 unique new listeners before we reach our 100th episode. You can help by sharing our show on social media and tagging us or leaving us a review on your podcast platform of choice. If we hit the goal, we will provide fun giveaways, including things from some of our tech tips episodes.
