It\u2019s no secret that lawyers can be pretty bad with money management, and there are many reasons why.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s go back to the very beginning,\u201d says Joyce Brafford of Profitsolv. \u201cWe know that law schools are very good at taking people\u2019s money. But what about when the lawyers have to take people\u2019s money?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a recent episode of the Non-Eventcast, Joyce and her colleague Scott Clasen discussed all things cash flow with host Jared Correia.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here are three ways the panelists have witnessed miraculous financial wins at small law firms.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As Scott notes, the cash flow benefits from this type of arrangement go beyond simply collecting what you\u2019re owed.<\/p>\n

\u2026 And Accepting the Processing Fee<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another big blocker to a pre-authorization agreement? The 3% processing fee.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here, Joyce explains why the fee is worth it \u2014 and why this is not a difficult decision.\u00a0<\/p>\n
