As part of the inaugural Legal Iconoclasts Conference. Two events dealing with value-based pricing for lawyers from all over the world.

A superb series of talks and exchange of ideas with an open-minded group of professionals where ideas were shared in a friendly manner and you came away feeling that there were many others who thought about legal services in a different light from the “I am a Partner don't you know” approach that the law is so often thought of.

 It was an interactive and educational experience. It was also lots of fun too! I would highly recommend the Expo!

He's also an absurdly helpful and generous individual, and one that could inject tremendous value into any business hoping to better leverage their expertise. Could not recommend his Value Pricing Training highly enough”.

Legal Practice Management

“Shaun has chaired our Legal Practice Management conferences on several occasions and has done so brilliantly, with wit, flair, and a keen eye on the key duties of a chair: levity when it's needed, gravity when required, brevity at all times. He's also been a panel chair in conference and has done so with the same level of capability and quality. I'd have him back every time if he didn't threaten one day to do it in a penguin outfit.”
Rupert Collins -White, Burlington Media Group
