for Individual Attorneys

Being an attorney is one of the most challenging careers - long hours, demanding clients, and sometimes a work environment that seems isolating.  It's that isolation, lack of mentoring, or absence of outside perspective that can degrade the experience of serving in the law.

As your coach, Scott can help you:
  • Enhance performance
  • Advance or transition in your career
  • Strengthen leadership or communication skills
  • Uncover blind spots
  • Gain outside perspective
  • Help create balance or boundaries

A privately hired coach works for YOU and only you set the agenda of what the coaching will explore.  Imagine the ability to discus anything, explore any idea in a confidential space.

Coaching gives an attorney a competitive advantage

Our Process

Attorneys are unique and face unique challenges in the legal environment.  Therefore a coaching solution should be tailored to individual needs of the client.  The coaching engagement & process has a progressive set of steps that include:
  • ​Objective & outcomes declaration 
  • Resource and skills assessment
  • Plan design and implementation
  • Investment analysis and follow up
My coaching style is client-centric meaning you set the agenda while I design with you a course of action to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your objectives.  

Along the way, I will not hesitate to challenge your assumptions, expand your clarity, and leverage my intuition, even when its uncomfortable. 

My coaching and client communications are completely confidential. 
​Testimonials*
You have helped me improve immensely over the last few years. I have doubled my income, I am proactive about budgeting with my wife (we meet every morning after our workout), and we are starting to significantly turn our finances around. I have a growing stream of private students.  Thank you for the great help ... when I first called you, I was in a mess, psychologically and emotionally, relative to money. I'm not now. Thanks for your guidance.

Scott and I worked together when I was transitioning into a new career. I had serious misgivings about my ability to take on additional responsibilities and was even worried about how I would come across in an interview. Scott worked with me on overcoming my doubts and crafting my message. He helped me see new ways of looking at my experience and measuring the value I could bring to an employer.
