Listen to the Episode Below: Every company is unique, and it’s fascinating to learn the ins and outs of how the most successful companies grow to be in that category. Today we’re joined by someone who has taken their business from being the scale of a taxi cab, to the scale of Uber: Tom Clancy.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.
With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.

I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
