Titles don't build trust, people do. And according to Rebecca Goodman-Stephens, that's where real leadership begins. Rebecca is the CEO of Moses Singer, a New York law firm, but her story starts far from the legal world. She grew up across the UK, Switzerland, and France, studied clinical psychology, and built her career in consulting and public accounting before stepping into her current role. Along the way, she kept coming back to the same core skill: understanding people. As she joins hosts Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg, Rebecca shares how her background shaped her leadership style, and why listening, curiosity, and follow-through matter more than any formal authority. How do you get people to want to work with you? How does one shift a firm's culture without blowing up what's already working? Rebecca also talks about her move into legal services and what surprised her most, like how much creativity and momentum she's found in a space often viewed as slow to change. From evolving compensation structures to narrowing focus and driving intentional growth, she walks through the mindset behind her first two years as CEO. This episode touches on private equity and what legal leaders can learn from the accounting world. Rebecca offers a clear message: don't wait for outside investment to fix what you haven't yet addressed internally.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Meet Rebecca Goodman-Stephens 04:04 How Clinical Psychology Shapes Rebecca's Leadership Approach 08:02 Lessons from Consulting and Public Accounting 12:52 Why Rebecca Moved into Legal Services 15:50 What Surprised Rebecca About the Legal Industry 17:27 Leading Change as CEO at Moses Singer 21:13 Private Equity and the Future of Law Firms 24:23 Building a Resilient, Forward-Looking Organization 26:41 Launching a Business-Focused Law Firm Podcast 27:56 Personal Passions, Family Life, and New York Favorites   Links Connect with Rebecca Goodman-Stephens: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-goodman-stephens-b702665/   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hrosenberg/ Company web profile: https://www.baretzbrunelle.com/howard-rosenberg   Connect with Chris Batz: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisbatz/  LinkedIn Company page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/columbus-street/ Columbus Street website: https://www.columbus-street.com/  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Welcome to 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech,' your weekly exploration into the dynamic intersection of artificial intelligence and the legal profession. In today's episode, we delve into how AI is profoundly reshaping legal practice, from internal operations to client interactions and the delivery of legal services. We'll discuss the emerging legal and regulatory frameworks taking shape, including New York's new law on personalized algorithmic pricing and AI companions, which mandates transparency and safety protocols. We'll also examine the far-reaching EU AI Act, a comprehensive legal framework with global impact that categorizes AI systems by risk and applies extraterritorially, requiring U.S. organizations to evaluate and update their AI governance programs. The conversation will also cover the growing intellectual property challenges, as highlighted by landmark copyright infringement lawsuits against AI image generators like Midjourney, addressing concerns over the unauthorized use of copyrighted content and the ethical boundaries of AI creativity. Furthermore, we'll explore the transformative power of agentic AI in automating tedious tasks, analyzing unstructured data, and improving efficiency for law firms, along with its potential in evaluating complex forensic evidence more cautiously and scientifically. We'll also touch upon the importance of optimizing online presence through Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) in this new era of AI-driven search, which demands structured data and authoritative content. Join us as we consider these vital developments, understanding the opportunities and complexities that AI introduces to the legal world, and how legal professionals can continue to thrive and adapt in this evolving landscape.NY Passes Law Governing Personalized Algorithmic Pricing; AI Companions13 Jun 2025JD SupraDisney and Universal Take Legal Action Against A.I.

The Little Things That Make a Big Impact ⚖️In this episode, we sit down with Tim McKey to discuss why client experience goes beyond legal expertise. From the coffee you serve to how you answer the phone—every detail shapes how clients perceive your firm. ☕✨

In today's episode, I sit down with Gretta Rusanow, Head of Law Firm Group Advisory Services for Citi Global Wealth at Work, to break down the findings of the 2025 Citi Hildebrandt Client Advisory. This annual report is one of the most closely watched analyses in the legal industry, providing insights on market trends, firm growth strategies, and the evolving business model of law firms. We explore some of the biggest challenges and opportunities law firms are facing, including the slow but inevitable adoption of generative AI, shifting leverage models, the expansion of non-equity partner tiers, and how firms are approaching lateral hiring in an increasingly competitive market. If you're a law firm leader, an aspiring partner, or simply want to stay ahead of where the legal industry is headed, this episode is packed with valuable insights. At a Glance: 00:00 Introduction: The Future of Big Law  01:20 Overview of the Citi Hildebrandt Client Advisory and its influence on law firm strategy 04:03 How law firms are responding to generative AI and why spending remains low 08:20 The challenge of recouping AI investment costs while maintaining profitability 10:46 How AI may reshape associate leverage models and impact billing structures 16:07 The role of lateral partner hiring and why success rates remain modest 20:56 The rise of the non-equity partner tier and its impact on law firm economics 27:21 The risks of an overgrown income partner tier and how firms can manage it effectively 30:51 Growth markets and law firm consolidation trends in 2025 A Few Takeaways: Generative AI Adoption Is Slow, But Inevitable: Despite all the buzz, law firms spent less than 1% of their revenue on generative AI tools in 2023. Firms are still in the assessment phase, but large-scale investment is coming. Those that successfully integrate AI will need to balance efficiency gains with sustainable billing models. Leverage Models Will Shift, But Not Disappear: While AI may reduce the need for first- and second-year associates to perform certain tasks, firms are more likely to reshape their leverage models than abandon them. Many firms expect a shift toward mid-level and senior associates who can refine AI-generated work rather than a dramatic cut in junior hiring. Lateral Hiring Is a Gamble: The success rate of lateral hires remains low, with many firms finding that promised books of business don't always materialize. Firms that succeed in lateral hiring have rigorous integration strategies, ensuring new partners are fully embedded in firm culture and client relationships. The Non-Equity Partner Tier Is Expanding for Retention: More firms are embracing the income partner model as a way to retain senior associates who might otherwise leave. While this strategy can strengthen talent pipelines, firms must carefully manage this tier to avoid the inefficiencies seen in past decades. Market Consolidation Is Expected to Continue: The cost of running a law firm is rising, from AI investments to partner compensation. In an environment of modest demand growth, firms will increasingly turn to mergers and strategic consolidation to remain competitive, particularly in high-cost legal markets like New York, California, and London.

In this episode, Gina Rubel and Jennifer Carr reflect on their experiences at Legalweek and discuss the evolving implications of recent executive orders targeting law firms. The conversation covers the controversy surrounding decisions made by major firms and the broader legal industry's response.

Private equity is making moves in the legal industry, and Crispin Passmore has a message for firms that think they can ignore it: adapt or risk getting left behind.   Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg sit down with Crispin, the co-founder of Stratify and a former U.K. regulator turned law firm consultant, to talk about what's happening on both sides of the Atlantic. Why has the U.K. embraced alternative business structures while the U.S. continues to resist change? Is the legal industry really evolving, or does it just feel that way to those pushing for reform? Crispin shares his perspective on where things stand, why some firms feel no urgency, and what's fueling the momentum in places like Arizona.   Crispin also dives into what private equity sees in the legal sector: why investors are drawn to it, how they're already involved, and what it means for firms that want to stay competitive. But money alone won't solve the industry's biggest challenges. Governance structures are outdated. Succession planning is a mess. Many firms still operate as if the market hasn't changed in decades. Crispin explains why those who are looking outward, not inward, will have the biggest advantage in the years ahead.   Change may feel slow, but as Crispin puts it, revolutions rarely happen overnight. When the shift picks up speed, will firms be ready?   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Introduction to Private Equity in Legal Industry 03:04 Comparison of U.K. and U.S. Legal Market Liberalization 05:50 Success of ABS in the U.K. 08:02 U.S. States Experimenting with Legal Market Liberalization 11:45 Structuring National Practices from Arizona ABS 14:55 Vulnerability of Law Firms to Market Changes 16:45 Private Equity Interest in Legal Market 19:06 Alternative Ways for Private Equity to Enter U.S. Legal Market 21:15 Challenges of Private Equity in Traditional Law Firms 25:13 Changing Dynamics in Law Firms with Private Equity 29:02 Future of U.S. Law Firms with ABS in the U.K. 33:35 Effective Use of Raised Capital by Law Firms 35:17 IPOs vs. Private Markets for Law Firms   Links Connect with Crispin Passmore: Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/crispin-passmore/ Firm Website Bio: https://www.passmoreconsulting.co.uk/about-me   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hrosenberg/ Company web profile: https://www.baretzbrunelle.com/howard-rosenberg   Connect with Chris Batz: LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisbatz/  LinkedIn Company page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/columbus-street/ Columbus Street website: https://www.columbus-street.com/  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

The legal industry is facing its “Netflix vs. Blockbuster” moment. AI, automation, and alternative legal service providers (ALSPs) are rapidly reshaping how legal services are delivered, and the biggest question is: Who will adapt—and who will be left behind? Roger Pilc leads a $600M+ division at Epiq, bringing experience from McKinsey, Booz Allen, CA Technologies, and Pitney Bowes. With insights from Satya Nadella's vision on AI, Clayton Christensen's The Innovator's Dilemma, and leadership lessons from Peter Drucker, Adam Grant(Author of Think Again), and Daniel Pink(Author of Drive), Roger explains how ALSPs are positioned to disrupt legal in ways law firms and Big Four consultancies cannot.
