Consulting
Your Firm Called. It Wants a Plan.
Law firm consulting that gives you the clarity, systems, and strategy to run your practice like a business — not a fire drill. Most law firm owners are great lawyers. But running a firm is a completely different skill set. Best Era brings The Way — our proven operating system — and builds a strategy around where your firm is headed.

You didn't go to law school to spend your nights worrying about payroll, chasing down marketing vendors, or wondering why your firm feels stuck even when it's busy.
That's where we come in.
Best Era was built by lawyers, law firm owners, and law firm leaders who've been exactly where you are. Ryan McKeen scaled his own firm to a team of 40 and 8-figures before launching Best Era alongside Brittany Green, his firm’s marketing director, and Allison McKeen, his firm’s COO and CFO — so when we talk about what works, we're not guessing. We built it ourselves, tested it ourselves, and now we help law firm owners like you do the same.
Whether you want ongoing consulting support or a focused two-day reset, we have a path forward for you.

What Is The Way?
The operating system built for law firms — not borrowed from someone else's business model.
Traditional systems like EOS weren't designed for small law firms. They require roles most firms don't have until they're 40+ people deep. Ryan and Allison McKeen hit that wall themselves — and instead of forcing a bad fit, they built something better.
The Way is a law firm operating system that works at any size, including solos. It runs on shorter weekly meetings (because you're busy), clear goal-tracking, and a structure your team can actually follow. It's what we wish we'd had from day one.
Travel Add-On
Want us to come to you?On-location intensives are available but limited — we can only commit to a small number each year to do our best work. We're also happy to host your team at our offices in Glastonbury, CT.
Travel expenses (flights, hotel, flat fee per diem allowance) are reimbursed at cost and billed in addition to the service fee. We'll work with you to find the most practical arrangement.
Frequently
Asked Questions
Here's what law firm owners usually ask before they sign up.
Who is this consulting for?
Law firm owners and practice leaders who are done running their firm on instinct and ready to build something that actually scales. Whether you're a solo attorney or leading a team of 20, Best Era meets you where you are — and builds a plan around where you want to go.
What's the difference between the subscription and the Intensive?
The Two-Day Intensive is a fast, focused transformation — you come in, we build the plan together, and you leave with everything you need. The subscription programs are for ongoing support, accountability, and execution. A lot of clients start with the Intensive and move into a subscription. Others jump straight into a subscription. We'll help you figure out what makes sense on your free consultation call.
What is The Way, exactly?
The Way is Best Era's proprietary operating system for law firms. It's what Ryan and Allison McKeen, and Brittany Green built when they realized systems like EOS weren't designed for the realities of running a small firm. Think: a practical weekly rhythm, a clear goal-tracking structure, and accountability tools that actually work for attorneys. Every subscription tier and the Intensive are built around The Way.
Do you work with firms outside of Connecticut?
Yes — all of our subscription consulting is done remotely. The Intensive is also available virtually, or in person at our Glastonbury, CT office. On-site travel to your location is available but limited to a small number of engagements per year. We can determine what makes the most sense for your team and ours.
What results should I expect?
That depends on where you're starting from and how committed your leadership team is. What we can tell you: every firm that does the work comes away with more clarity, better systems, and a team that knows what they're supposed to be doing and why. Some firms see measurable revenue growth within a quarter. Others feel the culture shift first. Both matter.
