  • UPDATED WEEKLY

Small Law Firms often start from the practice of law and not as a business venture. This ends up causing the growth of the firm to be much longer and more painful than it needs to be. If you started a Law Firm with the intention of increasing your impact, freeing up your time and having all the money you will ever need then the strategies we discuss will be priceless for you. Profit with Law is a show focused on the business of running a law firm as a profitable venture. Packaging and pricing your services, getting clients consistently, growing your staff in a way that feels good to you and implementing systems and technology to set yourself up for success are all discussions you will find here on the show. Moshe Amsel the host of the Profit with Law podcast is not an attorney. He has spent 20 years as an executive in the IT industry before becoming an accountant and business advisor for small businesses. As the owner of a successful accounting firm DreamBuilder Financial and Law Firm Growth coaching organization Profit with Law, Moshe has proven that there are better and different ways for a law firm to do business and be successful. Our mission is to empower all people with wealth creation so that this and future generations can lead a better life. We’d love nothing more than to do this by helping law firm owners on their journey. A law firm is not for practice it’s for profit!

    Send us Fan Mail Shownotes can be found at https://www.profitwithlaw.com/533. Most law firm owners don’t have a leadership problem—they have a leadership gap they never intentionally built for.

    How to Make a Return on Investing in Mass Tort Cases

    Send us Fan Mail Shownotes can be found at https://www.profitwithlaw.com/528. Most law firm owners hear “mass torts” and think opportunity. What they don’t see is the risk, the noise, and the number of firms quietly losing money. In this episode, Moshe sits down with Kate Hoffmann, founder of Smart Reviews, to unpack what’s really happening behind the scenes — from how firms are using mass torts as a growth and tax strategy, to where things are breaking down with bad leads and fraud. They walk through how to evaluate opportunities the right way, what separates a smart investment from a costly mistake, and why due diligence is the difference between strong returns and wasted spend. This isn’t about chasing the next big case.  It’s about understanding how this space actually works so you can make better decisions with your time, money, and firm. If you’ve ever considered mass torts — or you’re already investing and want to do it more effectively — this conversation will give you a clearer lens on what to look for and what to avoid. Listen now to learn how to approach mass torts with more confidence, better judgment, and a strategy that actually supports your firm’s growth.
