About the Program
Do a Google search for law firm websites and the word “innovative” and you’ll be overwhelmed with hits. And yet, nearly every law firm uses a business model that was invented nearly a hundred years ago. If you’re billing your time in tenth-of-an-hour increments, you might as well be wearing a powdered wig and using a quill pen. You want to market your firm by differentiating it from your competitors? Change your business model: Learn how to price your services instead of just marking time. Legal pricing expert Jay Shepherd tells you how.
About Jay
Jay Shepherd runs Shepherd Law Group, the Boston employer law firm that completely replaced the billable hour with fixed pricing. Jay has been protecting employers in and out of court for 16 years, and he’s defeated some of the largest U.S. law firms. Law & Politics magazine has called him one of the “Top 100 lawyers in New England.” Jay is also CEO of Prefix, LLC, a consultancy dedicated to fixing the practice of law. The ABA Journal named his “Client Revolution” blog one of the hundred best law bogs. Jay’s married to an employment lawyer at another Boston firm and has two young daughters (who are not employment lawyers).
About Shepherd Law Group

The firm specializes in business-employment litigation, and is nationally known for its expertise in non-compete lawsuits. Shepherd Law Group has provided fixed-price employment law help to more than twenty billion-dollar-revenue corporations and scores of smaller companies.
