I used to think compensation was simple: pay people fairly and keep it moving.

But the more my law firm grew, the more I realized that compensation can make or break your business.

If you've ever felt unsure about how to pay your team, or asked yourself, “Am I rewarding the right behavior?” or “Is this structure going to hurt me down the line?” then you don’t want to miss this episode of Crushing Chaos With Law Firm Mentor.

In it, I pull back the curtain on what really goes into building a smart, sustainable compensation system for your law firm.

It’s all about aligning your pay structure with your actual business needs and making sure you're not accidentally creating problems with how you're compensating your people.

Listen in and learn all about:

• The three components every law firm compensation system needs
• Why “eat what you kill” might be killing your firm’s culture
• The truth about origination credit—and how to define it clearly
• How to design incentives that actually drive performance

… and a whole lot more.

Whether you're hiring your first associate or rethinking your entire team structure, this episode is packed with insights to help you build a firm that’s built to last.
