The AI Toolbox for Lawyers, with Zach Blattner and Berkeley Almand-Hunter

Run Your Firm. Build an Asset, with the Injury Board

Most law firms are run by great lawyers who've never been taught to run a business — and that gap shows. Mason Alley, Jess Spino [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessspino/], and Carla Cornish [https://www.linkedin.com/in/carla-billeter] of the Injury Board [https://www.injuryboard.org/], a 25-year invite-only national network of plaintiff personal injury firms, join Ben Gideon [https://www.gideonasen.com/our-team/benjamin-gideon/] and Jeff Wright [https://www.gideonasen.com/our-team/jeffrey-wright/] to share what separates firms that thrive from those that stall. They tackle the biggest operational challenges facing member firms, why treating your firm as a sellable asset changes how you run it, how private equity is circling the legal industry, what authentic marketing actually means for plaintiff lawyers, and how the Injury Board's working groups help every role in a firm — not just the attorneys — level up.

Build vs. Buy: Insource/Outsource for Law Firms, with Ben Gideon and Jeff Wright

Every function in your law firm — from medical records retrieval to marketing to financial reporting — is either something you should own or something you should hand off, and getting that wrong can grind your practice to a halt. Ben Gideon [https://www.gideonasen.com/our-team/benjamin-gideon/] and Jeff Wright [https://www.gideonasen.com/our-team/jeffrey-wright/] break down the strategic framework Gideon Asen [https://www.gideonasen.com/] has developed through years of trial and error: insource the work that defines your firm's value and builds competitive advantage; outsource the rest. Ben walks through three specific rules for what to outsource and two for what to keep in-house, from legal services and intake to finance and marketing. Jeff adds the operator's perspective on why fractional arrangements often fall short and why institutional knowledge is impossible to replicate from the outside.

The Art of War for Law Firm Owners, with Ben Gideon and Jeff Wright

What would a 2,500-year-old military strategist say about growing a law firm? That's the lens Ben Gideon [https://www.gideonasen.com/our-team/benjamin-gideon/], founder of Gideon Asen, reaches for when he reads Sun Tzu. In this episode, Ben and Gideon Asen COO Jeff Wright [https://www.gideonasen.com/our-team/jeffrey-wright/] distill timeless principles from the writings of Sun Tzu and apply each one directly to law firm strategy. They explore how to win clients without costly head-on competition, why attacking a rival firm's weak intake systems beats fighting on their own turf, how to identify undefended market territory no one else is chasing, and why speed is a competitive advantage smaller firms can wield more effectively than large ones. Ancient wisdom, practical applications, real firm results.
