Q: How did we meet?
A: I started my firm in August of 2013 and I was a successful lawyer so I had a run rate of about $400,000 as an associate at somebody’s law firm. At the end of my first year I was at $635,000 and I was miserable. I was absolutely miserable, in fact, August of 2013 when I started the firm was following the implosion of a partnership and I was working ninety hours a week. I lived about an hour away from the office and at some point I hired the most incompetent secretary in the world. That was the first bad secretary I ever had. So I decided I would be my own secretary. I would come to the office at five, be a secretary until eight am, be a lawyer until six pm, be a secretary until nine pm, drive an hour home and do it again seven days a week. And then I almost ran off the road one night. When I realized that wasn’t working I decided to hire the right people and I did okay, but I was miserable. And when I realized I wasn’t going to be able to do this on my own I literally googled the phrase _how to manage a small law firm._ That’s how I found RJon and then Chris Dyson did a great job on the phone selling you so here I am. My current run rate this year, we’re projecting out to 1.6 million.
