Brad Plaschke is not a consultant who has read about law firms. He is a practitioner who has lived every dimension of the legal profession—from courtroom to C-suite—and has spent more than twenty years building the operational, financial, and revenue systems that enable organizations to scale with precision.
A Cum Laude graduate of the University of Illinois Chicago School of Law, Brad began his career clerking for the Illinois First District Appellate Court before building a successful litigation practice in downtown Chicago. He later served in executive leadership roles—including General Counsel, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Revenue Officer, and Chief Human Resources Officer—helping growth-stage companies scale operations, revenue, and organizational performance. Today, through OnlyLaws.co, Brad serves as the fractional executive partner to a select group of law firms nationwide, helping firm owners implement the systems, accountability, and growth infrastructure required to build stronger, more profitable, and more scalable firms.
“I have spent twenty years in boardrooms and courtrooms. I know what it takes to build systems that actually produce results — and I know the exact moment when a law firm stops growing because its infrastructure can no longer support its ambition. That is the moment I exist for.”
