Attorney Coaching & Consulting

Working IN Your Business – Unbundled Services Coaching

The Law Shop recommends first attending a Workshop to learn the basics on unbundling your legal practice prior to engaging in one on one or group coaching sessions. This will lay the foundation for you and your practice and will make for more pointed and productive coaching sessions. Once you’ve attended a workshop, if you would like additional direction on the “how-to’s” of implementing unbundled services into your practice, one on one or small group virtual or in person coaching sessions are available with Amy and/or Andrea.

Working ON Your Business – Business Consulting

In order to run a successful unbundled law practice, Amy and Andrea had to shift their thinking from the traditional law firm business model. They went from two solo attorneys to a firm of five attorneys and 3 staff members within three years. This meant they had to adapt their office systems and increase efficiency quickly. They manage employees by creating and protecting their very wholesome, family environment. They onboard new Shop attorneys on a commission arrangement that creates flexibility and profitability for all. If you are interested in up-leveling your law practice and increasing your own personal happiness, inquire today about TLS one on one or small group business consulting sessions.

“Whenever I find out Amy is on the other side of a case I know we will be operating in integrity and fairness.” - Kimberly J. Stamatelos, Attorney / Author of “The Compassionate Lawyer” / Co-Founder of The Compassionate Alliance

"I attended an Unbundled Services Training at The Law Shop in 2019 and wasn't sure what to expect when I walked through the door. We've all been excited for a training just to struggle to keep our eyes open throughout the event. But guys – this was a training like no other! Amy Skogerson and Andrea McGinn provided me with all the information, resources, and advice necessary to go out and crush an unbundled practice, all while remaining warm, inviting, and approachable. I have now completely unbundled my family law and estate planning practices and am LOVING the increased options for my clients. I could not be more grateful to Amy and Andrea for the time, energy, and expertise they have poured into this training. I could not possibly give a more glowing recommendation than this one for The Law Shop." – Dawn Hernandez, Attorney & Mediator, Des Moines, Iowa

When I got married I never imagined that I would be divorced, but I think that's true of most people. 17 years later, I was a nervous wreck walking into Amy's office. She greeted me with a warm hug. After my nerves were settled, and I had told my story, she took my hand and said that it was time for me to stop taking care of someone who needed to start taking care of himself. I felt safe, and I felt ready. My divorce journey was not as difficult as it could have been, but there were some uphill climbs that I had to take, and Amy was right there with me. Always with advice, always with a kind word, and always with a feeling of positivity. I cannot imagine having anyone else represent me or my family. To work with Amy, is to work with more than just a legal representative. I could provide some small similes in order to really hit home with how pivotal she has been (and to utilize that English Master's degree I'm still paying for) and say: Amy is like a light house during a storm, she is the smell of your favorite cookies baking at your grandma's house , and can be thought of as steaming cup of hot chocolate that awaits you after you've been sledding all day. All true. Simply put, Amy helped my four children and I navigate a very difficult time, and begin our new life as a happy family of five We now live without being afraid, and enjoy every single day that is ahead of us. Amy helped us to get there.” – Kelly

"I have referred Amy to literally every person I know who is adopting (I think I'm at 3 and running!) and there is a reason for that!  Amy truly makes us feel like she cares about helping our family grow, and the best part is that I know it isn't an act - it is clear that she loves what she does and helping children find their forever families!” ~Elizabeth Skurdal
