The financial foundation
that makes everything
else possible.

The early years of a legal career are the most important window for building real financial momentum. Are we making the most of yours?

If you are an Early Career Attorney, how many of these apply to you?

Is your loan repayment strategy actually right for your career track?

The decision between PSLF, income-driven repayment, and private refinancing can have a six-figure impact over time. Most attorneys set it on autopilot and never revisit it.

Do you know what happens to your income if you cannot work?

Group disability through your firm replaces roughly 60 percent of your base salary and it is taxable. Is that enough to protect what you have built?

Where does the bonus actually go?

High income creates the illusion of financial health even when the balance sheet is still negative. Without a system, lifestyle expands to fill the space.

Are you capturing every tax advantage available to you right now?

At your marginal bracket, every dollar in a taxable account when it could be sheltered is a real compounding cost.

Have you thought about what partnership actually looks like financially?

Equity admission at most firms requires a capital contribution of $150,000 to $500,000 or more. Most associates were never told to start building that fund.

Do you have a savings rate or does spending just happen?

Associates who save 10 percent versus 30 percent of gross produce dramatically different outcomes within five years.

If you are at a government or public interest employer, is your PSLF strategy locked in?

PSLF requires 120 qualifying payments on the right loan types, on the right repayment plan, at a qualifying employer.

Does your financial life match the goals that actually matter to you?

The home, the family, the freedom to make career decisions based on what you want. Is your money moving toward those things?

The challenges are different depending on where you practice.

Every attorney faces a version of the same core financial challenges, but the specifics vary by practice setting. The guidance we provide is tailored to your actual situation.

BigLaw

High income from day one, but bonus volatility and a partnership probability most associates never calculate. The financial structure has to account for income that can disappear faster than it arrived.

Small and Mid-Size Firm

Lower starting income, different benefit structures, and often a more direct path to equity. Building wealth here requires a different strategy.

Government and Public Interest

PSLF is the centerpiece of the financial strategy here and it has to be executed correctly from the start.

In-House Corporate

More stable income, equity compensation at some companies, and a different kind of career risk. The financial plan here looks different from private practice.

Five upfront meetings.
A foundation built to last.

Goals Mapped

Personal and financial goals, short and long term. Our process starts here because your money should serve what you actually want.
