  • Disrupt Your Own Law Firm with Darren Findling
    2026/04/28

    Most law firm partners lay awake at night worrying about new competitors, AI replacing jobs, or market shifts killing their business. But according to national probate leader Darren Findling, they are worrying about the wrong things.

    In this week’s episode of Judicial Dollars and Cents, host John Scott sits down with Darren Findling of The Probate Pro to discuss a counterintuitive strategy for long-term success: being the one who disrupts your own firm.

    Darren shares why his job as CEO isn't to maintain order—but to constantly bring back "wild ideas" to his team. He explains how he uses hard data to validate those ideas, and why staying "comfortable in discomfort" is the secret weapon he developed from a chaotic childhood origin story.

    If you want to stop fearing the future of the legal industry and start building it, this episode is your blueprint.
