Judicial Dollars and Cents
Judicial Dollars and Cents explores the financial strategy, performance metrics, and decision-making frameworks that help modern law firms — including high-growth personal injury firms — build stronger, more profitable, and more resilient businesses.
Hosted by Anders Partner and legal industry Virtual CFO advisor John Scott, the podcast brings together legal and business leaders to share insights on law firm financial management, profitability, and long-term firm value.
From cash flow forecasting and partner compensation to marketing ROI, cost per case, and operational performance, each episode focuses on how law firm leaders can move beyond historical reporting and toward proactive, data-driven financial leadership. Drawing from real-world client experience and deep legal industry specialization, the show delivers practical perspective on the complex financial realities facing law firms today, including the unique economics of contingency-fee practices.
