Why Jonathan Abandoned the City — And Built a $4 Million Family Law Practice - #138
How does a small-town family lawyer build a $3 million practice after 19 years of struggle and heartache? In this candid Masters of Family Law interview, Jonathan Breeden shares the raw truth behind his rollercoaster journey from struggling solo practitioner to thriving multi-attorney firm in North Carolina.
We explore his strategic evolution:
- How choosing an underserved suburb with fewer competing attorneys proved crucial to his initial survival
- The devastating website vendor failure that collapsed his practice and forced his wife to become his paralegal
- His transformative decision to invest in marketing during COVID, while competitors pulled back
- The heartbreaking moment when associates attempted to steal $120,000 in clients (and how he rebuilt)
- The game-changing hire of a supervising attorney that finally stabilized his attorney retention
Listen in for practical wisdom from someone who grew from $700K to $3M+ in just four years by mastering his marketing funnel, implementing systems, and embracing an abundance mindset. Jonathan's authentic journey provides actionable strategies for family law attorneys at any stage—especially those willing to work through difficult transitions to achieve their ideal practice.
