Succession Planning: Building A Solid Plan
NextPath Legal provides a proven 360-degree, all-inclusive, written Succession Plan. Through hands-on collaboration with each firm, we tailor a Succession Plan to meet the needs of the four most important constituents of a solid firm plan:
          1. Plan for the Partners          
          2. Plan for the Clients                 
          3. Plan for the Successors
          4. Plan for the Firm  
Did you know that by 2020, more than 50% of the legal workforce will be age 55 and older?
