Coaching & Development for
Law Firms
Although we serve clients in many industries, coaching for lawyers and law firms is our specialty. Loeb Leadership has supported lawyers and administrative leaders within mid-size and large law firms since we first opened our doors in 1997. That's over 25 years of law firm coaching, training, and consulting experience!
Law firm coaching is a highly personalized experience that may include a focus on marketing, sales, operations, leadership, financial mastery, career advancement, or general mindset. We support a diverse offering of professional development opportunities with various levels and terms of engagement. When you choose to work with our coaches and consultants who specialize in this area, you can expect consistent support and tangible results.
In addition to our law firm coaching services, we offer lawyer training programs covering diversity, interpersonal communication, and other important leadership topics. One of our most popular and successful programs is our in-house Managing for Impact series, specifically tailored to managers in the legal industry. We are also happy to help you assess your current workplace culture and determine whether any changes need to be made so that your team members' coaching objectives remain in alignment with the firm’s mission and values.
Professional Coaching for Lawyers
Loeb Leadership’s beginnings as a legal administrator coaching organization have allowed our coaches to develop the vast experience necessary to provide focused coaching to lawyers in mid-sized to large law firms. We have carefully refined our proven coaching methods over the past 25 years. We know that law firm coaching comes in many forms – whether you are interested in individual coaching or firm-wide participation, we can help you create a coaching program that promotes strong leadership at every level.
Curious about what you can expect from law firm coaching? Some of the biggest benefits stem from the skills and tools you will learn by working with an experienced coach who is dedicated to your law firm's success. Easily improve your organizational, goal-setting, and communication skills, and brainstorm new ways to schedule your days to achieve maximum productivity without expending additional effort.
One of the biggest perks of the coaching process is that it is highly customizable. The structure of your coaching sessions is entirely dependent upon your current mindset and what you’d like to accomplish in the next several months. You’ll be matched up with a coach based on your strengths and goals, which makes the process even more personalized. Each of our coaches bring something unique to the table, so we’re sure we can find a great fit for you.
Law Firm Leadership Training Programs
The legal field is highly competitive. Law firms spend significant time and energy vying for clients and referral sources, so attorneys have learned that it’s important to take advantage of any opportunity to stand out in their practice area. Many firms also hope to stand out to quality job applicants and find ways to improve employee retention. Coaching and leadership training may be the key to improvement in both areas.
Our team is proud to offer law firm training programs that enhance competence among attorneys and administrators without creating dependence on unsustainable practices. Our law firm coaches work with lawyers and administrators to make gradual yet impactful changes to their management techniques, goals, and expectations. When you create clear leadership structures within the firm, team members at every level are free to develop appropriate skills for their role and do their part to improve the client experience. Every single member of your team brings to the table unique experience and assets; through coaching, we’ll help develop and highlight these assets to appeal to clients and prospective employees.
