Can strategically designed retirement benefits be the key to attracting and retaining top talent in your law firm? Discover the untapped potential of retirement planning as we host Courtney Shipley, founder and chief planologist of Retirement Planology, on this episode of Leadership in Law. Courtney takes us through her fascinating journey from a music performance major to becoming a leading authority in retirement planning. She reveals the critical importance of offering comprehensive retirement plans and the significant tax advantages they bring.
