Hiring David was a home run for us. In fact, many of our top billers have been coached by him. We have used a variety of coaches and trainers focused on a variety of target groups, and David is the first one that has been able to customize his system and approach to hit each individual's target. He is fantastic.
Jay Felton
Executive Committee Member, Lathrop GPM LLP
Not only has David Freeman shown many of my firm's lawyers how to grow their practices, but he has also been an exceptional brainstorming partner for me, helping me see how my role as CEO can be used to attract new opportunities to the firm. Our work together has resulted in many new clients.
Sangeeta Shah
CEO, Brooks Kushman
David helped revolutionize my practice. By shifting my mindset and applying a few of David's suggestions, I more than doubled my originations in a year.
Allen Denson
Partner, Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP
We hired David Freeman Consulting Group to design and deliver a retreat in May of 2020, and when it was cancelled due to the pandemic, he immediately pivoted and created a series of virtual programs that far exceeded our expectations.
Josh Kappel
Managing Partner, Vicente Sederberg
Before using David's approaches, I was stuck figuring out how to get significantly more work from a potentially huge client. After applying his techniques, we're now attracting new matters and we expect to bring in millions in new revenue for both me and others in my firm.
Jamie Head
Partner, Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP
I really enjoyed using the Lawyer BookBuilder® program. Their techniques have been easy to implement and adapt to my own business development style. Applying some of the techniques, I have been able to strengthen relationships and bring in notable clients to my law firm.
