In the fifteenth episode of How to Run a Law Firm in 2025, Mathew Kerbis and I tackled a topic every solo and small firm owner should be thinking about—how to keep costs low without sacrificing quality.
We shared the ways we’ve intentionally kept expenses down by handling things like bookkeeping, marketing, and client meetings ourselves, especially in the early stages. Doing this not only saves money but also lets us pass those savings on to our clients—something that can really set you apart in today’s market.
We talked about some of our favorite affordable (and even free) tools, like Wave Accounting, and other digital solutions that help streamline operations without a hefty price tag. We also explored the pros and cons of running a fully virtual law firm, how to manage credit card processing fees, and why it’s so important to regularly review your expenses to make sure every dollar you spend is working for your business.
At the end of the day, smart spending isn’t about being cheap—it’s about being strategic. And this episode is packed with ideas to help you do exactly that.
