The Boutique Lawyer Show: The benefits of a ‘partners on commission’ model

For Janya Eighani, a “partners on commission” model is not just a way to be innovative and chip away at traditional practice methodologies – it is also a way to better support a community of consulting principals and garner broader business and vocational benefits for her firm. On this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Lehman Walsh Lawyers managing partner Janya Eighani to talk about the “partners on commission” model that her firm established during the COVID-19 pandemic and why, the challenges that have arisen since the introduction of that model and how the firm has managed those, and how the model is advantageous for all parties involved. The pair also discuss the lessons learned from this model, the myriad personal and professional benefits to the firm implementing the model, turning one’s firm into a multi-service offering, new perspective that arises (personal and professional), and ensuring that one’s firm can compete against the big end of town.
