Running a successful legal practice is a juggling act. You need expertise in your area of the law to provide services to clients. You also need the know-how to run a small business. You've probably been well prepared by your education and experience for the technical ins and outs of legal practice. Yet what training has prepared you to run a business?

Loaded with practical, powerful advice you can implement easily, this one-stop guide enables you to realize all the benefits that come with a thriving legal services business.

Combining the wisdom of renowned business development expert Michael E. Gerber and the legal expertise of attorneys Robert Armstrong and Sanford Fisch, The E-Myth Attorney equips you to:

• Liberate yourself from the predictable and often overwhelming tyranny of unprofitable, unproductive, and time-consuming routines
• Transform yourself from a successful legal technician (attorney) into a successful legal-manager-entrepreneur
• Rethink your practice, shifting from tactical thinking (working "in" your business) to strategic thinking (working "on" your business)
• Stop trading time for dollars
• Manage those processes through which people get things done, which becomes your Management System--for everything you do
• Implement innovative systems to produce consistent results as your practice grows
• Take the sanctity of time seriously, blocking time for entrepreneurial work and using a weekly planning tool
• Create the story about your practice; this story becomes the heart of your practice
