    Healing Forward: Grief, Community, and the Courage to Confront Life After Loss with Robin Bresky | Ep. 158
    Nov 17 2025

    Content note: This episode includes discussion of suicide and mental health. If you or someone you know needs support in the U.S., call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline

    In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life®, appellate attorney and Florida Bar leader Robin Bresky joins host Steve Riley for a candid and deeply human conversation about building a thriving law practice and a meaningful life after unimaginable loss.

    Robin's story shines a light on lawyer mental health, resilience, and the power of purpose. She shares how she grew from running a solo home office to leading a seven-lawyer appellate firm and eventually merging with a New York powerhouse. Her success wasn't built on cold calls or advertising; it was fueled by community involvement, bar leadership, and genuine relationships grounded in trust and service.

    After the tragic loss of her son to suicide, Robin found herself drawing on the very tools she had developed through years of Atticus coaching. Time management, planning, and focus became lifelines as she rebuilt one day at a time. Her experience highlights how intentional structure and clear boundaries can help lawyers navigate grief and return to their practice with clarity and strength.

    Robin also shares why lawyer mental health needs open, stigma-free conversations. In 2018, she founded the Attorney Wellness Exchange, which has helped countless professionals make wellness a priority. She discusses how physical fitness, mindfulness, and self-care can sustain emotional well-being in high-pressure careers and why checking in with struggling colleagues can truly save lives.

    This episode is about more than overcoming tragedy. It is a masterclass in transforming pain into purpose. Robin reminds us that community builds referrals, wellness builds strength, and courage builds a life worth living.

    If you or someone you know is struggling, call 988 (National Suicide Prevention Lifeline).

    • Importance of wellness and self-care in the legal profession

    • Creation and impact of the Attorney Wellness Exchange

  • Bold Moves and Better Margins with Lauren Presser on Courage and Team Investment in Law Firm Growth | Ep. 156

    Bold Moves and Better Margins with Lauren Presser on Courage and Team Investment in Law Firm Growth | Ep. 156
    Nov 3 2025
    What if you could transform a legacy law firm while staying true to your personal goals? In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life®, attorney Lauren Presser reveals the law firm growth strategies that transformed her practice, creating clarity, balance, and sustainable growth. After buying out her uncle's 50-year-old family firm in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Lauren partnered with Atticus to modernize every part of her practice. The result was a 35% increase in revenue within one year, without sacrificing her family time or her sanity. This is a compelling narrative of courage, mentorship, and strategic innovation in a traditionally static industry. Lauren's transformation began with a clear why: she wanted to be fully present for her children while leading a thriving practice. Every change she made flowed from that intention. With coaching and focus, she trained her legal assistants to lead initial consultations, replaced discounts with fixed-fee packages, and introduced structured scheduling: no walk-ins, time templates, and set client touchpoints. Lauren's story is a masterclass in law firm growth strategies that actually work. Her firm's culture evolved too. Lauren implemented a simple bonus structure built around three measurable KPIs, aligning her team and inspiring accountability. The result was a calm, collaborative environment where everyone knew what success looked like. Lauren's story proves that growth doesn't require burnout. By setting boundaries, empowering her team, and leading with purpose, she built a profitable firm that supports her life instead of consuming it. Her journey is a powerful example of what's possible when you pair intentional leadership with practical systems and a reminder that success at work means little if you miss the moments that matter most at home. In this episode, you will hear: Lauren Presser's transformation from associate to principal owner of a 50-year-old law firmStrategies for achieving a 35% revenue increase while maintaining work-life balanceImplementation of fixed pricing models and bonus structures based on key performance indicatorsOvercoming challenges in a family-run firm and navigating systemic changes with the help of mentorshipStrategic moves, such as relocating to a larger office space to accommodate a growing teamImportance of setting boundaries to ensure personal well-being and professional successEmpowering non-lawyers to conduct initial consultations and the benefits of adopting innovative business practices Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

    Building Leaders Who Build Your Firm with Emily Sorbi | Ep. 153
    Oct 13 2025
    10 insider secrets to leverage a team leader for growth, profit, and balance On this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley talks with Emily Sorbi about how law firms break through growth ceilings by developing a strong team leader. Emily rose from the front desk to Director of Operations and now manages a team of 30 across multiple states. Her story shows what happens when owners invest in values-driven talent and give them the tools to lead. Emily shares ten insider secrets for building leverage through people, systems, and standards so lawyers can focus on revenue work. You will hear how to empower a team lead publicly, set daily check-ins that keep work moving without micromanagement, and protect high performers from burnout. She explains why team leads should not own client files, how to shift them into growth and efficiency projects, and how to handle mistakes without derailing momentum. The conversation gets practical on decision rights and transparency. Emily walks through involving your team lead in hiring, promotions, benefits, and tough personnel calls, including when a high-output but toxic team member needs to go. She also makes the case for giving your team lead access to budgets and key financials so they can make smarter staffing and compensation decisions, even if that transparency feels uncomfortable at first. For owners wondering where to find a team lead, Emily explains why hiring for values and developing internally outperforms bringing in outsiders cold. If you are a firm owner or a rising team lead, this is a practical playbook for scaling with accountability, trust, and clear roles.

From creating clear client expectations to handling emotional family law cases, Lonny shares how structured offerings can guide clients through their hardest moments. He explains how AI and innovation support lawyers in delivering personalized services without losing the human touch that matters most.

    Lonny's journey proves that rethinking consultations is more than a financial decision, it's a leadership decision. By shifting to this method, lawyers not only strengthen their firms but also create practices that serve both their clients and themselves better.

    In this episode, you will hear:

    • Lonny Balbi's innovative approach to legal consultations with the Balbi Marital Assessment package

    Near-Collapse to Record Years: How Doré Rothberg Law Rebuilt from the Inside Out | Ep. 151
    Sep 29 2025
    What happens when a father-son duo takes on the challenge of revamping a struggling law firm? On today's episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Carl and Brent Doré share their extraordinary journey of transforming the Doré Rothberg Law Firm into a thriving practice, along with the invaluable support of partner Lisa Rothberg, who was instrumental in stabilizing and growing the firm. After a record-breaking year, momentum reversed and the firm hit a breaking point with cash-flow issues and weak processes. Instead of giving in, they embraced a series of bold, strategic changes. Their story is a masterclass in law firm growth strategies. You'll hear how they moved operations to the cloud, revamped their onboarding process, and used a unique financial metric they call "DRL hours" to stabilize the firm's finances. These law firm growth strategies were truly tested when they made the ambitious decision to hire seven new attorneys in just six months. This move, backed by a powerful paralegal team, not only expanded their capacity but also boosted productivity and profitability across the board. Their philosophy is simple: revenue follows capacity. Invest in your people and processes, and the revenue will come. Carl and Brent also share how they navigated the complexities of a family-run business and the challenge of succession planning. Their "shareholder pipeline" strategy creates a clear path for career progression, serving as a powerful tool for hiring and retention. Their journey is a rich tapestry of lessons on firm culture, adaptability, and the power of personal and professional integration. It proves that with the right mindset, you can build a practice and a life you truly love. We are thrilled to have Carl and Brent Doré as Game Changers at this year's Summit! With transparency, humility, and a touch of humor, they'll show how tough conversations, bold hiring decisions, and investing in the right infrastructure and people helped them turn chaos into clarity and scale for the future.
