When I finally decided to open a firm after 11 years as an Assistant United States Attorney at the Department of Justice and 4 years in medium-size firms, I chose to work with Bill after talking with several law firm coaches. Why? Because the Time Savvy System is the only time management system which specifically addresses the daily stresses of legal practice. As an attorney who has used and discarded a number of popular systems, I believe that Bill has uniquely distilled and captured the elements of what I need to manage in order to manage my most precious resource: time.

Bill Jawitz is a better ally than you can imagine. I’m a sole practitioner, and very strong in the technical aspect of what I do, which is tax law, but I was clueless about law practice management. I stumbled along for twenty-five years, sometimes doing very well, sometimes not as well, but never knowing exactly why. Then I went to a bar association seminar Bill gave and began working with him on organizing my day and my workflow. Here are some results: my weekly billing has almost, but not quite, tripled, as has my draw. Moreover, my clients are better! Because Bill helped me set up consistent marketing routines, I am IN CONTROL of the flow of my work. And now that I realize I’m in charge of my practice, I find I am a better professional, more active and aggressive on my client’s behalf. If I had it to do all over again, I would have found someone like Bill much earlier in my career. But I’m proof that it’s never too late!

Working with Bill has been one of the most rewarding professional development experiences I have ever had. I initially sought Bill's services to assist and guide me on improving my time management skills, and he seized upon the opportunity to show me how to improve the related management skills that I could, and now do, implement every day. Learning and applying the Time Savvy System has not only resulted in a noticeable reduction in my daily stress levels, but it has allowed me to reconnect with much of the joy I used to get from practicing law but which had become buried beneath the increasing workload associated with leading our firm's growing IP practice.

The Eight Step Time Savvy System has made a complete night-and-day difference in my practice. In a few short months, I have put in place routines that have already yielded increased time with my family, increased profit margins, and a happier staff. The value of having a workable, coherent approach to improving how we manage our work and prioritize our time is tremendous. Actually, my wife found Time Savvy Attorneys while researching time management for lawyers because even though my practice was already "successful," she was concerned about the toll in stress that it was taking on me. I will be forever grateful to her.

Bill combines a suite of interlocking knowledge and skills in one smart, engaged, funny brain. He understands the business of lawyering — practice building; personnel management; and law firm finance – and most importantly, how to help me make time for all the things I have to do as President of my firm. He knows how to manage and how to help me sell ideas and build consensus, as well as how to herd cats without getting clawed too badly. He is technologically savvy, knowing the print and web resources out there, weeding out drivel, and recommending concise, authoritative sources to solve specific problems. He is valuable, and fun to work with. I consistently get my money’s worth.

I needed to transform the way I practiced — I needed structure, guidance, and follow-up to make it happen. I can unequivocally say that Bill’s program delivered the results I wanted. I changed the way I work — and I've build an even more successful and more profitable practice. My stress has been reduced, and my health is better. I've put in place the attitudes and the habits that have made my life and my work better than I thought they ever could have been while still practicing full-time as a litigator.

My practice had hit a plateau and although I was spending a lot of time on marketing efforts, the results were less than satisfying. Bill worked with me to evaluate how and where I was spending my marketing time. We then built a targeted plan and established the routines that allowed me to become more productive overall – and as a result get more out my marketing hours. I am very pleased with the results. The end result is much more efficient use of time, with an overall significant increase in fee generation over the last 18 months.

I'm now getting regular press on the topic of amicable divorce, I have the best staff I've ever had, I've raised my rates, and I'm more focused than ever — all thanks to the organized approach I took to managing my time. As I’ve gotten more comfortable running my practice using the Time Savvy principles (and not just having a law firm) I've put in place the strong foundation upon which I'm continuing to grow my practice.

Bill’s dedication to my success inspired me to produce more than I imagined was possible, quicker than I thought, and at a standard of excellence in which I take great pride. In the year since my three months working with Bill, I have implemented metrics to track my efficiency, have significantly increased the number of attorneys with whom I work, and have increased my monthly billable hours to the level I intended. I recommend Bill without reservation.

In his Time Management seminars, Bill talks about “the raging river” of work that so many lawyers step into every morning and get swept away by. I used to be one of them, but no more. I actually have control over my day now. My morning routine and my regular meetings with staff keep me – and all of us – organized in a way I just did not realize was possible prior to my coaching with Bill. Being in control is a great confidence booster, which in turn has allowed me go after and get higher quality work – and stop taking the cases I felt I had to take previously. When I opened my own shop, I was motivated by the excitement of it, but I didn’t know how much was involved in making it work well, and the stress sapped my excitement. Bill’s coaching has brought the excitement back. I highly recommend him and his approach to time management.

Bill Jawitz helped me revolutionize my law firm. His time management coaching allowed me to see that organization, systematization and attention to the performance of my practice were what I needed to work on to make it an outstanding and profitable business. Bill brought to coaching a perfect mix of the pressure that made me effect the change I wanted and a compassionate understanding of how uncomfortable change can be. Working with Bill helped me to do the things I knew I should be doing but wasn't. If Bill can't help you improve your productivity and your practice, you don't want it to be better.

The Time Savvy System helped me manage myself so that I was no longer “out of control” but actually able to practice law, run my business and even have some extra time for myself in the course of the week. I am able to prioritize what needs to be done, focusing on the value of the file rather than the pressure of the client. I was able to get out of the areas of law that I did not like or where I made less money to focus on the areas of law that I really enjoyed.
