Cutting away a thorny branch does not make the remaining thorns harmless. The same is true inside a law firm.
In this episode, Victoria Collier explores the problems that can continue causing damage long after an employee leaves, a client relationship ends, or outdated technology is replaced. She also examines how missing accountability and an owner's own habits can create hidden risks that quietly affect operations and firm value.
Buyers do not expect perfection, but they do need confidence that past problems have been fully identified and resolved.
What You'll Learn
• Why an employee's departure does not necessarily eliminate the problems they left behind
• How processes lose their value when accountability is missing
• What must be addressed when ending a difficult client relationship
• How unused or poorly implemented technology can become an ongoing liability
• Why the law firm owner may be the biggest obstacle to growth
• How unresolved "dead thorns" create uncertainty for potential buyers
