Excerpt from the foreword to Gary's fourth book

Every profession has its heroes—those rare individuals who see beyond conventional boundaries and transform entire fields through their insights and innovation. Gary is undoubtedly one of these transformative figures in law firm management.

Under Gary's guidance, Monkhouse Law was recognized three times—2019, 2020, and 2021—as a top-growing company, an accolade we eventually set aside, understanding that actual growth isn't measured in awards but in sustained success and fulfillment.

Gary assisted me and numerous other staff members at our firm, providing each of us with tremendous support. At pivotal moments in our careers, Gary provided essential clarity and practical direction, offered actionable strategies explicitly tailored to our firm, and consistently empowered us to reach higher efficiency, profitability, and satisfaction levels.

What Our Clients Say

“As a profession, statistics show we are a cynical and thin-skinned bunch. As such we look at coaches with a generous dose of doubt, married with an abject fear of the constructive criticism that will surely result. Undaunted, Gary approaches these lawyer biases and fears personally, positively, professionally, and politely with determination. He becomes your alter ego, the constant voice in your ear, coaxing you along a road that you know you should travel… Partner with Gary if you want to get to your destination in less time and with less effort. I can say this counting Gary as a partner for over 10 years, in various capacities and successful pursuits. Gary is no nonsense with clear, reasonable and attainable approaches to help you realize your vision and goals.”

Michael A. Thackray, K.C., Senior Counsel, Dentons, Vancouver, and Former Founder and Managing Partner, Thackray Burgess, Calgary

"Gary is an invaluable help to anyone thinking of starting their own law practice. The one time I did not follow Gary’s advise, I ended up wasting thousands of dollars unnecessarily. Invest in Gary and you will always be thankful for his thoughtful tips!"

Leena Ronak Yousefi, Founder, YLaw Group, Vancouver

"If you’re reading this testimonial, you probably don’t know Gary Mitchell the way I know him. About five years ago, I stumbled across his book on rainmaking online and decided to read it. I was most impressed. That then led me to reach out to him and discuss the role that he could play in my law firm. I then hired Gary to coach various staff members who went on to become exceptionally productive, increased our firm revenues and, most importantly, dramatically improved their happiness quotient at work. I have since consulted with Gary on many occasions and will continue to do so. For small to medium size firms who cannot afford to have an in-house productivity specialist on payroll, Gary is your man."

Steven Benmor, Principal, Benmor Family Law Group, Toronto

"Several years ago when I was a non-equity partner in our Toronto office I worked with Gary Mitchell in his Business Development coaching program. Working with Gary helped me change my mindset around business development and the results followed. I am now our firm’s Office Management Partner in Calgary. The BD coaching certainly helped to put me on a path to building my practice and succeeding as a leader. Thanks Gary!"

Adam Maerov, Chair of the Board of Partnership, Former Office Managing Partner, McMillan LLP, Calgary

"Gary’s program really delivers. I was skeptical of working with a coach, but armed with Gary’s skillful application of practical business principles to my own practice, I am now focused, experiencing great results, and excited about the future. I have recommended Gary’s program to numerous colleagues."

Greg Mcilwain, Office Managing Partner, McMillan LLP, Calgary

"With a good start under my belt, I realized I needed guidance on a path forward in my career and to partnership. Coaching helped me focus on loWe hired Gary as our business coach during our law firm’s first year in business. His advice, guidance and access to other professionals in the legal field has been a huge asset to the growth of our new firm. He has helped us institute systems, establish our brand and build a resource network. His services are highly recommended to any start-up law firm."

Kara Duncan, Co-Founder, Duncan Allen Law, Nanaimo

"I was introduced to Gary Mitchell by one of our other OMPs who had worked with him. During the course of having lunch with Gary, it became apparent to me that not only could some of our lawyers in the Vancouver office benefit from coaching, I could too. I greatly benefited from Gary’s practical approach and guidance which helped me become more organized, efficient, and effective as a lawyer and a part of management, and more effective with marketing and business development. For anyone looking to grow their practice manage their firm, or juggle both, I highly recommend Gary Mitchell."

Tom Theodorakis, Former Office Managing Partner, McMillan Vancouver

"Working with Gary has enabled us to change the way we practice law. He has opened our eyes to new possibilities in law firm management, helped us define our goals and put us on a plan to accomplish them. He was a great help in assisting us in hiring a new employee- right from drafting the online ad to interviewing the candidates. He has connected us with other key professionals to assist us with practical firm management, fee structures and client management. Gary has definitely helped us work towards building the business and life that we have been dreaming of. "

Laura Allen, Co-Founder, Duncan Allen Law, Nanaimo
