Partners who want a more commercially sound business model
Founders building firms around value, not time
Lawyers who want to explain fees with more confidence
Firms looking to move away from the hourly rate
Legal professionals who want a practical introduction to value pricing
Inside this course, you will learn how to:
understand what value pricing is and what it is not
challenge common myths about pricing legal services
recognise what good pricing practice looks like
think more clearly about a real alternative to hourly billing
start approaching pricing as a commercial skill, not an administrative exercise
Value pricing is an approach to pricing legal services based on the value of the outcome, the importance of the matter, and the client’s commercial reality, rather than the time spent doing the work. In a law firm, it means moving away from treating time as the measure of worth and thinking more clearly about what clients are actually buying.
Yes. This course is particularly relevant for partners and founders because pricing is not just an administrative issue. It is a leadership issue, a commercial issue, and a client relationship issue. If you are responsible for profitability, positioning, or the way your firm explains and defends its fees, this course is for you.
Yes. In fact, that is exactly when it is most useful. Most firms do not move away from hourly billing overnight. This course helps you understand value pricing properly, challenge the assumptions behind time-based billing, and start thinking more clearly about what a better business model could look like in practice.
Yes. The course addresses the limits of timesheets and explains why time recording is often mistaken for sound pricing strategy. It helps lawyers understand why timesheets shape behaviour, how they distort value, and what a more commercially sensible approach can look like.
The course includes 2 hours of video content across 36 lessons. It is designed to be completed flexibly, so you can work through it at your own pace around the demands of practice.
Most pricing training was not built for lawyers. It often treats pricing as a generic business problem and ignores the habits, pressures, and assumptions created inside law firms. This course is different because it is built specifically for the legal profession, with a practical introduction to value pricing that reflects how lawyers actually work, price, and talk to clients.
