Tech guidance from practicing lawyers
who offer real-world tested, unbiased advice
Lawyers who use technology effectively are more efficient, and save a lot more time than other attorneys.
Here are self-reported time savings by attorney members.
Generative AI tools like ChatGPT are now the main reason members are saving time. Specifically, they report saving 4 to 7 hours each week.
Members report that significant improvement in delegation through the use of outsourcing, which is another way that they save time.
Members have different levels of focus for improving their practices, and also different budgetary constraints.
Therefore, I offer different levels of membership to accommodate those needs.
If you’re just getting started, the Basic Level gives you plenty of practical, result-driven insights. But if you’re interested in personal guidance, and more resources—Advanced Level is better.
Here’s how they compare:
Co-Pilot level members are eligible to participate in the ChatGPT workshop at no additional cost. And participants report getting stunning results from their use of AI:
“The more I use it, it’s actually scary how good I’m getting with it… I couldn’t imagine not using it now.” — Brandon Siegal.
“Using ChatGPT to prepare an affidavit for an expert — man, just so quick. The more you use it, the more mind-blowing it is.” — Joe Prieto
“I tried the voice version of ChatGPT on my phone—totally blew me away. It already feels like I’ve got a virtual teammate.” — Richard Serpe

If you’re on a limited budget or not able to commit time to the greater resources provided by the higher level, Basic will give you a solid start.
But if you want personal guidance and access to more resources (like the ChatGPT workshop), then Advanced level is better.
Our members focus on the core skills and essential tools that will make the biggest impact in a modern practice. These skills and tools include:
1. Communication — mastering email, phone, chat, video, dictation, and meetings

6. Marketing — especially referral-driven strategies
7. Remote Work — working effectively from anywhere

These are topics we plan to cover in the 2025 sessions:
No, most certainly NOT.
The platform we use to host the community is called Circle, and is designed for higher level community engagement. Although Facebook groups are widely used, they come with trade-offs, particularly regarding privacy. Facebook’s business model involves collecting and sharing data with advertisers, which I prefer to avoid.
Not necessarily but it’s recommended you answer these questions, so I can give you specific recommendations for improving your use of technology.
If you take the assessment and get my recommendations, you’re not committed to joining Inner Circle. If you do decide to join, I’ll strongly encourage you to take the assessment at that point anyway.
I recommend you take my training course on the 5 Pillars of a Tech-Powered Law Practice. That will help you start improving your use of technology right away (and this course is totally free).
