Who We Are

About Law Firm Coach

Law Firm Coach goes above and beyond law firm consulting. Our law firm management gurus mentor lawyers, legal professionals, and law firms, sharing and transferring our knowledge to put you in control and position you to move forward in a positive direction. We are Catalyst. We put the Catalyst Way philosophy into action to define a 360-degree approach to the practice of law and life. If you are ready for change, we will help you make it happen.

Our Mission: Vision, Solutions, Success

We focus on the art of the business of law by teaching others to think, dream, believe, and achieve success with integrity.

Meet the Law Firm Coach Principals

Law Firm Coach is made up of a core group of people led by Cheryl Leone and Dave Favor. Our team has been there, done that and understands law firms inside and out. Their knowledge and reputation in the field of strategic law firm consulting and management is well known.

Our law firm coaches have a combined 100+ years of experience in the legal industry. These coaches see part of their role as a transfer of their experiential learning to their clients. Our process includes:

A deep dive into the client’s thought process, vision and dreams
Developing core values for decision making and management
A systematic review of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats facing the firm (SWOT Analysis)
Offsite retreats designed to create workable (and realistic) strategic plans
Creating an ongoing relationship as you grow and change

Click to Meet Our Team

Law Firm Coach takes great pride in walking the path with our clients to ensure they meet their goals. Clients constantly call to get “tune-ups” or advice; all is given with the purpose of ensuring success for the clients.

Law Firm Coach builds our plans and strategies to support the client’s personal goals and values. “Been there, done that” experience makes it easier for our clients to avoid the pitfalls of law firm ownership.

We work with a limited number of clients, so you get our full attention. Our goal is to build relationships with our clients to help them convert their dreams into reality.

“Just as the name implies, Catalyst is an agent for change. If you desire to work “out of the box” and are willing to do the work, then this is time and money well spent. I now run my firm “on purpose” and not by chance.”
