I ADVISE ON LAW FIRM MERGERS, & REPRESENT PARTNERS AND GROUPS WHO ARE CONSIDERING A LATERAL MOVE: I have helped partners with modest books of $300K, partners & groups with large books exceeding $10M and represented the acquired-side law firms in mergers. We make clear to the law firms that pay us – they are not our priority. The attorneys who entrust us with their valuable careers are our priority. None of my people “sell” law firms, in order to make placements and meet quotas. That was how they did things at the huge recruiting firm with three names or letters you might be familiar with, where I used to work. Not at my firm. Before your information is shared with a firm, you will be provided with a comprehensive, data-driven Initial Due Diligence Report. This will include the firm’s PPP’s, hiring and attrition rates, brand in your practice area, D&I statistics and programs and more. If a recruiter doesn’t provide you with all of that, before asking if you would like to talk with a firm, you shouldn’t trust them. They’re just out to make a commission. Our first and utmost fiduciary responsibility is to protect you. Because you can’t afford a bad move, we make sure you don’t make one.I am also a rainmaking consultant. I’ve spend decades debriefing partners who have a loyal client base and asking them how they built their books of business. I have compiled all of that into practical, applicable training programs. My guarantee is simple: If you’re not absolutely certain you are getting incredible value for your money, I refund the entire fee, no questions asked. No one has ever requested a refund.On a personal note, I was once a homeless teenager. Oh well. As we say in Vegas, it's not the cards you're dealt, it's how you play your hand. Now I'm a philanthropist and donate a portion of every fee we get, to a homeless shelter and outreach center called HELP of Southern Nevada (www.helpsonv.org). This is a very worthwhile and important organization, and I would invite you to consider helping me support them.I also have a passion for tennis and play in USTA competitive leagues. I play horrible golf, love the dog and cat who own me, and used to play both poker and pool for cash in my misspent youth (by youth, I mean until I turned 60). My lovely bride is the greatest thing that ever happened to me and I couldn’t be more proud of my daughter, who will be off to Europe to get her master’s degree in 2022. I am truly grateful for how my life has turned out.If you want to contact me, my email me at fs@sheltonsteele.com
