Fractional leadership

A Fractional COO for your firm: the operator you can't yet hire full time.

A certified operations and workflow expert steps inside your firm and runs the business behind the law: intake, team structure, systems, and the numbers, on a part time, retained basis, at an oversight cadence built around what your firm actually needs.

What your Fractional COO owns

Operations and team

Org design, clear seats and ownership, role clarity, and the accountability that stops results swinging from person to person.

Systems and technology

Intake and CRM workflows, documented SOPs, and automation built by our in-house development team, so the firm runs on process, not memory.

Numbers and margin

KPIs at every seat and clear visibility down the revenue chain: leads, conversion, matters, billing, collections, and net margin.

Growth without chaos

We take intake, marketing, and back office off the owner's plate and manage to outcomes, so scaling means more capacity, not more fires.

Systems, bundled

One system. Everything live.

Most firms end up paying for pieces that do not talk to each other: a review tool, a ratings service, a reporting dashboard, and a spreadsheet someone updates by hand. We build lasting systems that replace that patchwork with one bundle, saving time, money, and effort.

Automated Google review responses

Every review gets a timely, on-brand reply without anyone on your team writing one by hand.

Local Services Ads rating management

Ongoing management of your LSA ratings and reviews to protect the quality score and ranking that drive your lead volume, with no extra system for your team to log into.

We plug into what you already run

We connect to your existing CRM, phone system, and ad accounts to pull the data out. Nothing new to buy, nothing new for your team to learn.

One dashboard, live data, daily review

Marketing performance, marketing metrics, firm performance, operations, and finance oversight, consolidated into a single dashboard built for a five-minute daily check instead of a monthly scramble.

A certified operator who stays embedded in the work

A generic consultant studies your firm and hands you a set of recommendations, then moves on to the next client. A Fractional COO stays in the operation, makes sure the plan actually gets followed, and adjusts it as your firm changes. Most process fails at follow-through, long after the idea stage is over.

Daily

For active overhauls

Firms in the middle of rebuilding intake, staffing, or systems benefit from daily involvement while the new way of working gets established.

Weekly

For steady growth

Once processes are running, a weekly or biweekly cadence keeps momentum and catches issues before they compound.

Monthly

For mature operations

Firms with a stable operation often only need monthly oversight to stay on track and catch drift early.

Cadence is set around what your firm needs right now, and it can change as your firm does.

About the Fractional COO program

Yes. This is not a generic consultant with a title. The program is led by a certified operations and workflow expert, the same discipline Law Ops Forge itself was built on.

Whatever cadence your firm actually needs: daily, weekly, biweekly, or monthly. Oversight is set based on where your firm is right now, and it can change as your needs change.

Advisory is a strategy partnership: sessions built around your goals, with you making and executing the decisions. A Fractional COO is embedded execution: they own the day to day operations, team structure, and systems directly, with oversight fit to your firm.

Not typically. Most firms bring in a Fractional COO because no one on the current team has the bandwidth or the specific operations background to own this work, not to replace an existing role.

Scale. Streamline. Succeed.

A short conversation is enough to tell whether this is the right level of support right now.
