John Strohmeyer - Packaging And Selling Legal Services On A Fixed-Fee Basis

Proprietor of Strohmeyer Law, John Strohmeyer, joined me on Ditching Hourly to talk about why he left a big hourly law firm to start his own practice and how he packages and sells fixed-fee legal services to avoid trading time for money. 

John's bio:

John Strohmeyer is the proprietor of Strohmeyer Law PLLC in Houston, where he guides individuals through the maze of estate planning, tax, and probate law to help them leave no unfinished business.

John is board certified in both Tax Law and Estate Planning and Probate Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. John is a Fellow of the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel (“ACTEC”, the cool-kids club for estate planners).

John hosts the Five Star Counsel podcast, which attempts to answer the question, "What would a law firm built by the founders of Disney, Four Seasons, Amazon, and Zappos look like?"

Based on his first career working for the Four Seasons Hotels, primarily as the Night Manager of the Austin property, he helps lawyers get better at client service, which helps them satisfy their ethical duties to their clients and convey their competence to their clients.

When he’s not practicing law, he spends his time with his wife Emily and their rescued mutts Griswold, Molly, and Billy; running marathons (45 as of August 15, 2022); and homebrewing beer.
