We call this TheGLMTribe.com What Makes The GLM Tribe Special? In short, we are the only organization within the "business builder for lawyers" space that is led by two practicing lawyers. One thing we"re sure you"ve noticed is that despite the variety of options within our space, no one else is mixing the actual practice of law with business building in the way that we are. There are no other organizations who understand the highs and lows of running a small law firm and are engaged in talking to real clients. That is what sets GLM apart from every other organization, and it is why we have had loyal members that have been with us for two-decades.
