As Law firms grow, many things change. Most notably the roles that are needed within the organization and the people that are working those jobs every day. Every role within a firm should be adapting and evolving. As the people in a firm and their roles change, so should the businesses’ priorities.
Knowing when to shift priorities, what to shift to and executing on that shift is where we come in. We act as an executive sounding board that will help you evolve into the leader that you always envisioned for yourself and your firm.
With continued growth, new problems emerge, and dynamic scenarios of a law firm play out daily.
We have a developed a methodology that allows law firm leaders to get reignited towards their vision for their firm while not having to go through it alone.

Black Sail’s 5 Pillars of Sustained Success
As business dynamics shift, you need to know when to shift your leadership focus and the resources of the firm. We help you focus on what the firm needs most, at the right time.
The foundation of your firm’s growth trajectory is built on its positioning. Once your positioning is improved, bringing this new identity to market is critical.
Your firm’s net worth is the aggregate of the talent that you have rowing together. Recruiting A+ talent should always be an ongoing effort. We help you overhaul your hiring process and maintain the effort throughout the year.
Your firm’s growth is limited to the quality of your systems and processes. Not your ambition or desire. Document, improve and train on processes or be susceptible to any minor shifts in your business.
The right strategic partnerships propel a firm’s business development efforts to new levels. The right time to invest time and money into alliances is now. Not having a systematic process for gaining new referral sources and maintaining existing ones is the reason your growth is not consistent.
