Fractional CGO Services
Growth Leadership for Chatsworth Law Firms, Sitting Above the Silos
You spend on marketing, field the leads, and chase business development — while no single person owns the number they’re all supposed to move. A fractional CGO sits above the silos and makes every team pull toward one revenue number.
In Short
What is a fractional Chief Growth Officer for a law firm?
A fractional CGO is a seasoned growth leader who takes ownership of the firm’s whole growth engine on a fractional schedule. Rather than owning one function like marketing or ops, the CGO works above the silos — connecting marketing, intake, sales, and retention into one accountable system instead of optimizing alone while good leads slip through the gaps.
- Senior revenue leadership for about 20–40% of a full-time hire’s price
- Built for $1M–$100M+ firms where the teams don’t share one number
- Engagements usually run 6–18 months, then ease into advisory support
The Revenue Relay
The revenue relay a fractional CGO owns
Each team runs hard, but leads cool in the handoffs. A CGO owns the whole relay and the one number it feeds.
Demand
Pointed at qualified pipeline and cost-per-signed-case, not clicks.
Intake
Every qualified lead answered fast — none left to cool.
Conversion
Disciplined follow-up that turns interest into signed clients.
Referrals
Signed clients become repeat matters and referrals.
Before & After

- Qualified leads cool off in the handoffs
- More revenue requires a bigger budget
- Accountability is diffused
With a fractional CGO
- A single source of truth across every team
- Speed-to-lead under five minutes, every time
- Revenue grows on the spend you already have

Personal Injury · $28M revenue · scaling
Heavy spend brought leads, but qualified prospects leaked between marketing, intake, and follow-up — with no one owning the full funnel.

Lead-to-signed conversion rose ~35% — with no increase in ad spend.
Employment Law · $5M revenue · expanding
Demand was strong, follow-up was hit-or-miss, and every team reported its own numbers.
