Why Doing Everything Yourself Is Destroying Your Law Firm
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
In this episode of The Managing Partners Podcast, Kevin Daisey sits down with Michael Cowen, founder of Cowen Rodriguez Peacock, to break down how law firm owners can scale without burning out. Michael shares his journey from being unexpectedly thrust into firm ownership to building a multi-state practice focused on high-stakes trucking and personal injury litigation. They discuss why delegation is critical, how to hire the right people instead of doing everything yourself, and why law firm culture directly impacts marketing, intake, and long-term profitability. Michael also explains how referral-based firms must adapt to a changing digital landscape, the dangers of relying on a single marketing channel, and how law firm owners can reclaim their time while increasing firm value. If you’re a law firm owner trying to balance trial work, leadership, marketing, and quality of life, this episode delivers real-world insight you can apply immediately.
