Master the Business of Law
The
LEGAL
Law firms are full of highly driven, talented and intelligent lawyers and business services professionals. Both authors; James Markham and Darren Mee, have had the pleasure of working with exceptionally talented individuals within law firms over the last two decades.
But whilst most are talented in the practice of law, it is perhaps fair to say that there is a general lack of understanding of the business of law.
Law school doesn’t prepare lawyers to run a successful legal business. And traditional MBA programmes aren’t tailored to the unique needs of complex professional service firms, with Marketing modules typically focused on major, multinational brands; and Operations modules on widgets moving down a production line.
This is precisely why we created The Legal MBA.
The Legal MBA provides you with an understanding of the key business concepts you’d learn from a traditional MBA curriculum, specifically tailored to meet the needs of busy lawyers and business services teams working in a law firm. We cover personal goal setting, strategy, marketing, service propositions and pricing, operations, personal effectiveness, law firm finances, and managing and leading a team.
​
We offer three options to master the business of law.
