They strictly avoid client-facing AI, prioritizing human connection, high-touch communication, and white-glove service . Marketing & Growth Strategy: Growth is driven largely by word-of-mouth referrals split roughly between former clients, other attorneys, and medical providers (chiropractors/doctors) . Instead of heavy PPC or billboard spending, the firm focuses on value-driven outreach, such as informational brochures for chiropractors, writing an educational book for crash victims, and maintaining personal relationships . Lightning Round Responses Tech / Tool Recommendation: Notion (paired with Clio) for tracking incoming referrals and setting automated outreach reminders, and Claude for internal content creation and research .

Resource Recommendation: Traction by Gino Wickman . The firm follows about 70–80% of the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) model to structure business operations . Hot Take: Skip reading business books ! Zack prefers learning directly from peers, asking experts, and attending CLEs over reading business manuals (unless summarized by Claude) .
