HUMAN RESOURCES

Employees are among a firm’s most valuable and costly resource.  Finding and holding on to good employees, maximizing productivity, and creating optimal work environments are essential to any business’s ongoing success. Achieving these goals takes skill, knowledge, and attention.  

I have over 30 years of practical, hands-on HR management experience.  During my 22 year career as a law firm administrator, I was responsible for recruiting, staffing and supervision of 500-plus employees, supporting 220 attorneys, in firms here in Portland and in New York City. My expertise in the broad scope of HR services I provide enables me to offer you assistance, when you need it, custom tailored to fit your firm’s specific goals and requirements.

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT Services      

Money is essential to keep your business running. Every law firm, regardless of size, must stay focused on planning and managing their firms' finances.  For smaller law firms and solo practitioners this can particularly challenging. Law schools don’t teach financial management. And even if you’re financially savvy, the demands of running your practice can push even essential administrative and organizational tasks to the back burner. However, the unavoidable truth is that without prudent planning, controlling your firm’s cash flow and improving its financial management will be impossible.

It’s not as hard as you think it might be, but then, it’s easy when you know how. I have 22 years experience running law firms and a demonstrated record of accomplishment of improving efficiencies, reducing costs and increasing revenues.
