Do You Have a Constant Revolving Door
with Your Support Staff?

Or have you made hiring mistakes in the past and know that you need more help, but are scared to hire again?

This is the kind of stuff that law school doesn’t teach us.

Hiring is more of an art than a science, but there are definitely a number of steps that can be followed that will help you avoid the common pitfalls that so many attorneys find themselves in when it comes to hiring the right help.

While estate planning attorney attorney Phil Kavesh (and his law firm) may have certainly made its fair share of mistakes in hiring, they have also had a great deal of success in hiring, including 5 team members having been with the firm for over 15 years (two over 25 years!) and several more who have been with the firm for over 5 years.  Through the years, Phil and his law firm has been able to figure out the best practices for how to hire, find and identify the right candidates, promote from within, and provide the proper training and work environment that the staff doesn’t want to leave!

This is why Ultimate Estate Planner Practice Success Coach, Kristina Schneider, who has worked for Phil Kavesh for over 17 years to put together this step-by-step, super practical presentation entitled, “How to Successfully Hire Support Staff”.

During this 71-minute presentation, you will learn:

  • How to address some of your most common beliefs about hiring and overcome a lot of your fears, concerns, and past bad hiring experiences!
  • If you’re a solo practitioner, what your first hire looks like and how to properly prepare for your first staff person.
  • If you already have staff, how to evaluate the staff you currently have on hand and get their help and input on any hiring—including a review of your organizational charge, your staff’s current job titles and duties, and a look at who should be helping manage your team.
  • How to put together the job advertisement, including:
    • What to say (and NOT say!), including what specific requirements should be included for your job ad
    • How to determine compensation for this new hire
    • Where to post the job advertisement (and how to increase the number of responses to your job posting)
