385. Double Your Signed Cases: How to Modernize Legal Marketing and Intake w/ Jordan Lundy
What happens when a three-generation PI firm stops relying on its name and starts operating with urgency? Jordan Lundy shares how Lundy Law rethought marketing, rebuilt intake, and aligned client experience with how people actually choose firms today. The lesson is simple but uncomfortable: demand only matters if your systems can convert it.
You'll learn:
Why brand recognition matters less than it used to—and how non-branded search now drives decisions
How listening to intake recordings exposed exactly where cases were being lost
Why Jordan stopped calling it an intake team and started treating it like a sales team
How responding faster to chats and web forms increased conversions without more leads
Why firms relying on “what’s always worked” are at the biggest risk right now

Why scaling exposes operational cracks faster than legal mistakes
The real risk of adding headcount before systems are ready
When C-suite leadership becomes necessary, and why fractional roles matter early
How to support elite trial lawyers at scale without turning cases into inventory

383. Double Revenue 3 Years in a Row (It’s Fewer PI Cases Than You Think) w/ Trey Harrell
What if the fastest way to grow wasn’t more volume, but better math? In this episode, Trey Harrell shares how a South Carolina PI firm went from startup mode to sustained, year-over-year revenue growth by focusing on the right cases, not all of them.

You’ll learn:
Why capturing a fraction of available PI cases can still produce seven figures
How Trey thought about growth before spending heavily on marketing
The role intake discipline played in early survival, and later scale
How local relationships quietly fueled multi-office expansion

Monty is widely recognized for his appellate win in Fox v.

In this episode, Monty shares how he treats law like customer service, retooling intake, and training his team to spot mild TBI patterns; he uncovered value hiding in plain sight. On trucking files, he goes past the driver to expose carrier‑level failures—and he helped cement the right to bring those claims in Oklahoma courts. The result: more signed cases, stronger case value, and referrals that snowball.
