TESTIMONIALS
"I've had the pleasure of working with Krystal for over five years, in many different capacities. She's been instrumental in the growth and stability of the firm. You can generate business and have great processes in place, but without the right people, your firm will never reach its potential. Perhaps more than anything else, identifying, hiring, training, and motivating great employees is the key to success. "Krystal brings her background in firm management to identify candidates who possess (or more importantly, can learn) the skills needed to thrive in the firm. Beyond the skills, she astutely assesses the individual and how they may fit into the firm culture. No matter how skilled the candidate, it must be the right fit for the employee and the firm. Krystal’s help has been invaluable to assembling the current team and all the success which follows."
"I hired RJH to assist with future planning for my law firm. They were extremely knowledgeable, prompt, and helpful. They have innovative ideas and work well together. "I'm extremely pleased with their services and would not hesitate to recommend them."
RJH Consulting has been the absolute best decision Babin Law, LLC ever made. Krystal has helped us grow from 2 paralegals and 1 attorney to 4 attorneys and 8 paralegals and still continuously growing. RJH Consulting has the experience and knowledge to help grow firms not only externally, but internally as well. Krystal has consistent innovative ideas that have helped develop a better managed and efficient team. Not only has she helped our practice to grow, but she has better streamlined our work product and created an amazing case process per field. Anything from management to developing a better system, I always consult with Krystal and her team. I truly believe she has helped grow our firm exponentially and will continue to help us grow in the future!
"I own a small but growing law practice in the Chicago area concentrating on estate planning, probate, and trust administration. I hired RJH to help me figure out compensation issues. They've been very easy to work with, giving me excellent advice that has resulted in a restructuring of my practice. "Though still early in the process, my associates are now incentivized to make more money for themselves and the firm. My managing associate is also incentivized to distribute and manage work so it flows evenly. It's likely that Matlin & Associates, P.C. will utilize RJH Consulting's skills and knowledge to benefit the practice in other ways."
"When we reached out to RJH Consulting, we knew we needed hands-on help in managing firm operations. From the very first Krystal and Beth dug in and began working not just with the partners, but with our entire team. In the last six months, they've helped us find and install an incredible firm administrator, worked with our staff to train them on case management and increased performance output. The increased engagement we've experienced from our entire team has created space for me to focus on growth. RJH has really delivered."
RJH did a great job for us. We are very satisfied with their work and would highly recommend them. We worked with Beth Slate and found her to be honest, very knowledgeable, friendly and just wonderful overall. It was like she had known us for years; she has such a knack for getting right to the heart of any issue! At first, we were not sure what it would be like to have a consultant reviewing our financial and company records, but we found RJH to be very professional and they helped us navigate through a few rough waters. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a little extra help!
