Judicial Dollars and Cents: Episode 29

A PI firm cannot manage growth well if it cannot see the value and timing of its case inventory.

In this episode, John C. Scott talks with Alex Weatherby of Weatherby Law Firm about his path from first-generation lawyer to personal injury attorney, the lessons he learned from defending lawyers and large companies, and how those lessons now shape the way he serves injured clients.

You will hear how Alex thinks about systems, Filevine, work-in-progress reporting, cash flow forecasting, AI, defense-side fee pressure, and competing against large PI firms through local service, communication, and relationships.
