BECOME A SECRET WEAPON FOR ANY SMALL BUSINESS OWNER

Big companies employ in-house counsel to identify missed opportunities, evaluate the health of the business, and create plans to mitigate risks and build on opportunities.

While small business owners may not be able to hire in-house general counselors…

They still need that same level of support from a trusted advisor who seeks to understand their values, goals, desires...

 

They need you.

Introducing The Family Business Planning Program

A program designed to support Personal Family Lawyers who want to serve small business owners in a strategic, holistic, and long term relational manner.

  • Tied to the billable hour

  • Become a lifelong, trusted strategic business advisor

  • Grow and adapt your services and fees to meet the growth stages and needs of business owner clients

Member Spotlight

How Personal Family Lawyer Todd Jarvis never looked back when he left the traditional law practice model behind, embracing the opportunity to serve families and businesses at a higher level.

"I didn’t want to bill hourly anymore and I wanted to have long term relationships with the business owners and families that I worked with – no more one-shots. Family Business Planning was the answer

– I didn’t have to create the model, it already existed and came with a full support network and mentors."

-Todd Jarvis, Personal Family Lawyer with a strategic business focus

You Might Be Wondering...

Here's What Our Personal Family Lawyers Are Saying:

From Burned Out to Excited:

Before NLBM I was burned out and thinking of leaving the law completely to become a life coach.

Now, I love my law firm and my law practice. My clients are wonderful to work with and super grateful. I feel like I am making a difference, and have better work-life balance.

I feel confident and excited about what the future holds, which wouldn't have been possible without NLBM.

MARC GARLETT

Proud Father and Firm Owner:

I’m in charge of my schedule. I'm at my kids' school many days, and I get to participate in all their activities…and with the NLBM way of doing estate planning, I know I'm an integral part of the solution for many wonderful families.

I had a 100% increase in revenue in the first year, and I am building a practice I love and am proud of.

A 6-Figure Practice In His First Year:

I was a commercial litigator for 12 years... I had made other firms plenty of money, but this time I was going to invest in myself. I'm in my 3rd year of (my corporate and estate planning) practice. I've never been happier with the practice.

I'm a stronger advisor to my clients. Importantly, I created a 6 figure practice in year one...because of the NLBM skills.
