CURRENT ESTATE PLANNING LAWYER

Already have a practice, just need purpose.

Maybe you’ve been an Estate Planning Lawyer for some time already and you realize the traditional business model is failing you, and your clients. You’ve likely already made the leap to flat fees (from hourly billing), but those flat fees are either too low to deliver a truly meaningful service, or they are high enough, but you aren’t getting enough clients engaged and paying you each month to keep your revenue consistent, steady and predictable.

And then every month, you start over at zero, wondering where the next new client will come from, and how you’ll pay the bills. It’s not working. And, if you are making it work, you are looking down the line at your future, and can see you aren’t building a business you can sell or retire from one day; you’ve just got a job that you’ll need to work in until you die.

It’s disheartening. We get it because we’ve been there.

We've cracked the code on the business model that works.

Not just for you, but for your clients too. The right fees, the right service, the right marketing, the right systems, the right service…all of it. We’ve got your back so you can have a life and law practice you love, serving your clients with an estate planning service you’ll love to deliver, and one day a business you can sell or retire from.

You’re working way too hard and spinning your wheels.

The bottom line is this: in today’s world, traditional estate planning lawyers are getting pushed to provide lower and lower service for cheaper and cheaper prices by the online alternatives. It’s a race to the bottom, and you need to keep charging less and less to compete with Trust & Will.com, LegalZoom, Rocket Lawyer, or the next up-and-coming online solution.

You believe in the power of estate planning to change lives, and you’ve seen it. But it’s getting harder each year. You know you need a competitive advantage, a differentiator that separates you from the “cheap legal” options you’re up against.

A law practice that’s relational, impactful, and lucrative.

We have important impact on people's lives

"I actually had a young couple breath a sight of relief out loud after they had signed their documents with me. I could physically see the relief on their faces that they had created a plan to protect their 3 and 4-year old sons. It truly made me feel that I had an impact on their lives.

Managing your mindset

"You have to go into it with a belief mindset that this works, if you work it properly, and if you work it as prescribed. So that’s what we did. We just implemented and implemented and implemented, and we saw our firm grow rapidly."

David Feakes

Control your time and attention

"Because of NLBM, we work with clients only 3 days a week and are able to enjoy life. I am proof that it works."

Bethany Gilson

Providing a unique value

“There are other attorneys who dabble in Estate Planning, but there was nobody here holding themselves out as the Estate Planning attorney for the community. And I’ve never had an issue with finding clients or with the price I charge because people desperately need this education. They need this service.”
