Following up on our lawyer compensation discussion, I sat down with two key perspectives from our 2024 comp change — Katie VanDeusen (Managing Partner) who led the rollout, and Nina Kelly (Partner) who experienced it firsthand.
Drawing from their different vantage points, we explore:
- How Katie and our leadership team rebuilt trust through careful, intentional communication
- The critical importance of 1:1 meetings before group announcements
- Why making team members feel "safe and heard" was key to success
- Nina's honest take on what it felt like receiving two major comp changes
Listen in for real insights on how to navigate one of the trickiest challenges in growing a family law firm — changing lawyer compensation without losing trust. Hope this helps you grow your practice!
