In many industries, acquisitions are a familiar route for those planning their retirement, yet when Jeremy Poock looked at the legal industry in the 2010s, he found the practice to be far less common. Instead, senior attorneys were more often opting to hand the kingdom keys over to an internal successor, or to shut up shop and divide up the clientele.
Adamant on ensuring senior attorneys receive the rewards they deserve, Jeremy set about researching how best to facilitate acquisitions for law firms, and in 2013, Senior Attorney Match was founded. The company helps attorneys with 30 plus years of experience to design and implement succession plans specifically tailored to suit their needs.
In today’s episode, Jeremy and I chat about the benefits of acquisitions, both to senior attorneys and to growing firms, as well as the intricacies that go into finding the right match.
