    Wisdom, Authenticity, and Relevant
    It’s not just a resource for attorneys; it’s a masterclass in professional and personal growth. In a crowded podcast landscape, this one stands out for its authenticity, wisdom, and relevance. Highly recommended!
  • Delisi_Araceli
    Every Lawyer Should Listen
    Just like the podcast name says, host Charley Mann brings you the content you WISH they had taught you in law school but didn’t. The variety of guests he brings on the show, the topics relevant to different types of practice areas, and his excellent ability to ask good questions and very naturally drive a conversation, it truly is Law School 2.0 with real advice, for free, and available to everyone. I highly recommend!
  • Offscripting
    Packed with Juice
    Charley brings the goods every time out. So many podcasts have hosts who seem to be there to just ask questions. Not this guy. He always has insights to share and brings out the best in his guests.
  • OJMcG
    Charley brings the value
    Charley’s podcast was always going to be worth a listen simply because he’s involved. (Some of my favorite episodes are the “coffeesodes”—especially the recent ones on building an investable law firm.) But he invites on some tremendous guests, from many different backgrounds, who help flesh out the simple and very, very hard work of building a business. I learn something every time. That makes this a consistent listen. Get after it, Charley!
  • JCumby24
    Great questions, proven guests, and takeaways every episode!
    Charley keeps it fresh and interesting with how he digs in and asks his guests to go deeper on certain subjects. He has an ability to pick something out of just one sentence or comment from his guest and asks great probing questions to get to the root. Very relatable, valuable, and most importantly, actionable content for any law firm owner. Whether your firm is 5 people or 50 people, you’ll benefit from listening!
  • kariababy
    Creative and innovative ideas
    It’s a fact that people who are able to look at what other industries are doing to succeed and adapt them to their profession can set themselves apart from their competition and create massive growth. This is what I appreciate about this podcast. It’s not just lawyers, but people from all industries and professions sharing both principles and practical ideas that sharpen our thinking and transform our businesses. Charley is a great interviewer and knows how to capture the nuances of the most valuable ideas.
  • Brandon S. O.
    Great info!
    Charley thank you so much for this information. I literally listen to every episode.The way you communicate principles of operations, finance, and marketing just makes sense to me! Thanks for making all of this information accessible!
  • Mondays with Meg
    Always valuable!
    I look forward to listening to this podcast and always learn something new. Thank you Charley for all the value you and your guests provide!
  • SCJS77
    A must listen for all law firm owners
    I’ve been a Charley fan for almost as long as I’ve been an attorney, and here he is hitting it out of the park again. From big-picture ideas to light-bulb, a-ha moments, all the way to “in the weeds” descriptions of how to run the business and tools he uses to make his job/life easier, you will walk away with something actionable to apply to your law firm with every episode. Keep up the great work, Charley!!
  • Tim Semelroth
    I can’t quit this podcast! It is “Can’t Miss”
    I am subscribed to too many podcasts. There is not enough time to listen to them all. Therefore I am always looking for a reason to unsubscribe. Unfortunately for my phone’s memory, every time I listen to Charley and Joe, I come away with at least one actionable item that can make me money, save me time or improve my life.
  • JanRoos
    Connecting attorneys to the big picture in business
    I think this podcast belongs in any attorney’s rotation. Charley and Joe bridge the gap between the legal industry and bigger trends in a way no one else is doing (and as entertaining co-hosts to boot!).
  • DClaw202
    Tons of actionable content to grow your practice
    Charley and Joe are experts when it comes to explaining how other industries are approaching marketing and finding and nurturing raving clients and then translating that into a law (or any professional) practice. Strongly recommend this pod for lawyers serious about growing their practice.
  • Nivek Beed
    Real-Time and Practical Guidance
    I love listening to every weekly show. Charley and Joe are incredible at covering thought-provoking topics that help me build a more profitable and fulfilling law practice - and a better life. In order to improve my practice’s performance, I look for shows that provide real-time and practical guidance. So, when a show covers law practice management and marketing topics and does it well, I can’t get enough of it. This is, by far, the best show around. Thanks, Charley and Joe for providing me with the tools I need to become a better law business owner!

    Worth Your Time Every Week
    Great information for lawyers. I enjoy the interaction between Charley and Joe and recommend it for any lawyer looking to improve his/her practice and life.
  • Jay U8
    Informational
    Great listen as the information is informative and also topical. It can help you think outside the box with different issues that come up with running a law firm or really any other business.

  • Frank Kearney
    Great info for law firm owners
    Charley and Joe give more than just great practical advice - they let you in on the mindset and attitude it takes to run a successful law firm as a real business. It’s a well thought out, engaging podcast.
  • PScholes
    A Great Blend of Business Advice
    This is a great podcast to listen to that fills in some of the gaps on things we never learned in law school. Listened to the first episode and Joe brings a good financial balance to Charley’s business advice. Find some time in your schedule each week to check these episodes out.
  • G Man 92
    They don’t teach this in law school!
    Law school prepares you for a lot, but there’s plenty more to do with the actual practice of law that law school just doesn’t cover. This podcast discusses things that schools should teach young lawyers about in law school—and that you should be learning about to improve your practice.
  • TinglesShabaz
    Crazy practical!
    Most of us attorneys, in my experience, know very little about how to run a business of law practice. we have bought into the myth that we will graduate from law school and either work for a firm or hang out our own shingle. We learn nothing about how to market so people actually know about us. This podcast is excellent for learning the “what I wasn’t taught in law school“ portion of practicing law. I highly recommend it for content and entertainment value, as it’s fun and informative!
