Custom Workshops for Law Firms

Your team already works hard. This is where they learn to work well together.

Every workshop is designed around your firm, your people, and the questions they are actually asking. Lexlee Overton, a fifth-generation trial lawyer with more than 30 years in the courtroom, builds it with you and leads it herself.

Why firms bring us in

Lawyers are trained to argue, analyze, and win. Almost nobody trains them to lead a team.

So most of us manage people the way we were managed. The senior partner who prefers a two-line email works next to the paralegal who needs the full picture. The associate who wants feedback in real time reports to someone who saves it for the annual review. Nobody is wrong, and the friction adds up anyway.

A good workshop gives the whole team a shared language for how each person thinks, communicates, and works under pressure. It turns "that is just how she is" into a conversation people can actually have.

Generic team building is built for corporate offices. Ours is built for depositions, trial prep, intake calls, and the partner meeting that runs long. Lexlee has lived that work, and she designs every session around it.

How every workshop is built

The work starts weeks before anyone walks into the room.

01

A conversation first

Lexlee talks with your firm leader or coordinator about the team, the moment you are in, and what you want people to leave with.

02

Your team weighs in

A short pre-workshop survey and a behavioral assessment (Predictive Index, and often Working Genius) show what the team wants to learn and how it already works.

03

A session built for them

The agenda is shaped by your team's own questions. Every person works from a personalized workbook, and every exercise is planned around the real people in the room.

04

Follow-through

Each person receives their full results afterward, the team gets its placards, and leadership gets a debrief with Lexlee on what to do next.

What your team takes home

Nobody leaves with a generic handout.

Most facilitators bring one slide deck for everyone. Lexlee builds a workbook for each person in the room, with their own results inside it, and casts every exercise with the names of the people who will do it. That is why the conversation gets real so quickly.

Signature exercises include the Human Team Map, Stand on the Line, Beat the Clock, and the marshmallow challenge, each chosen for what your team needs to see about itself.

In the room

A personalized workbook with each person's World of Work pages, behavioral report, relationship guides, and Working Genius report.

After the session

Each person's full Predictive Index folder, including their behavioral report and management guides, plus the team's placards to keep on hand.

For leadership

A debrief with Lexlee on what surfaced and what to act on, with optional one-on-one follow-up calls for anyone on the team.

Workshop topics

Start with what your team needs most.

These are the sessions firms ask for most often. Most workshops combine two or three of them, and every one is tailored to your practice.

Most requested

Wired to Work Together

Using Predictive Index results, your team sees how each person is wired to communicate, decide, and handle detail, and how any two people can work together with less friction.

Workflow

The 6 Types of Working Genius

A Working Genius session that maps where each person gets energy and where work gets stuck, so the right people take on the right parts of a matter.

Delegation

Communicate With Intention

How attorneys can delegate and communicate in a way each person actually hears, with a companion session built for paralegals and staff.

Development

Feedback and Mentoring by Drive

How senior attorneys can mentor well, what junior attorneys can do to make those relationships work, and how to give candid feedback while keeping the relationship strong.

Culture

Core Values and Vision

Your whole team names the values it actually lives by and sets a shared vision for the year, then turns both into behaviors people can hire for and coach to.

Clients

Client Care

Training for the people your clients talk to most, so every call, intake, and update reflects the firm you want to be known as.

Have something else in mind? Leadership retreats, women's leadership sessions, partner meetings, and onboarding programs for new hires are all built the same way. Tell Lexlee what you want the room to change.

Mind Over Law: Mental Performance Training for Law Firms

A winning team is not only well led. It is well trained in how to perform.

Leadership and team workshops change how your people work with each other. Mental performance workshops change how each of them shows up for the work: the focus they bring to a long day of document review, the composure they hold in a hard client call, the energy they still have on Friday.

Awareness

Know what is driving you

Spot the stress response early, before it shows up in an email you wish you had not sent.

Regulation

Composure under pressure

Breathwork and heart coherence tools your team can use in a deposition break or before oral argument.

Intention

Focus that holds all week

Managing energy, not just hours, so sharp thinking lasts past Tuesday afternoon.

Team practice

A shared reset

Simple rituals the whole team can use together before trial, after a hard loss, or at the start of a busy season.

Bring it in as a standalone workshop or CLE, add it to a team session, or use it as the first step into the full program for your firm. It is skills training grounded in neuroscience and built for skeptical professionals, with no fluff and no quick hacks.

Formats

Fit it into a lunch hour or build a retreat around it.

Virtual Session

60 minutes to 2 hours on Zoom

One focused topic for teams across offices, often run as a CLE or a short series.

In-Office Workshop

Half day to full day

Assessment results, workbook exercises, and real conversations about how your team works, at your office.

Retreat Session

One segment or the whole program

Lexlee leads part of your offsite or designs the full retreat with you. Small room, big shifts.

Workshop Series

Monthly or quarterly

Shorter sessions over time so new habits take root instead of fading after one great day.

In the room

When one team does the work, the next team asks for it.

More than a dozen law firm teams in the past year, from Louisiana and Texas to Oklahoma and Massachusetts, across bankruptcy, family, criminal defense, estate planning, and plaintiff practices.

Practice group retreat, New Orleans

A regional firm brought Lexlee into its bankruptcy team's retreat. The team's own survey shaped the session around collaboration, communication styles, mentoring, and candid feedback. Within weeks, a second practice group at the same firm asked for its own workshop.

"The session was very productive, and we really appreciate your time!"

Partner, regional law firm

"When the people around me are also more grounded, intentional, and resilient, we all perform better. We show up for each other."

Anthony Bribriesco, Bribriesco Law Firm

"I'm a better lawyer and leader from the work I've done with Lexlee."

Jacqui Ford, Oklahoma Trial Lawyer

A strong fit if

Your firm is growing and the way people work together has not caught up.

You have new leaders, new hires, or a new practice group that needs to gel.

You are planning a retreat and want a session people talk about afterward.

You want your lawyers sharper and steadier under pressure in 2027.

Probably not a fit if

You want a one-size-fits-all presentation with no prep from your team.

You are looking for entertainment rather than change in how people work.

Leadership is not ready to act on what the team shares in the room.

Questions firms ask before booking

Who should attend?

Usually the whole team: attorneys, paralegals, and staff together. The insight comes from seeing how everyone fits. When it helps, Lexlee adds a separate session for attorneys or for staff.

How much time away from client work does it take?

As little as an hour for a virtual session, or a half day for most team workshops. The prep for each person is a short survey and an assessment that takes under 15 minutes.

How far ahead should we book?

Four to six weeks gives time for the discovery call, the survey, the assessments, and the workbooks. Retreat season fills quickly, so earlier is better if you have a date in mind.

Can the workshop count toward CLE?

Any session can be built as a one-hour CLE. Longer programs can be submitted for additional hours where your state allows.

Do you travel?

Yes. We are based in Baton Rouge and lead workshops for firms across the country, in person and on Zoom.

How is a workshop priced?

Each workshop is quoted after the first conversation, based on the format, group size, assessments, and travel. Existing Winning Teams clients often have workshops built into their program.

Tell us about your team. We will build the room around them.

Book a call with Lexlee to talk through your goals, your dates, and the format that fits. Calls are available weekdays between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM Central.
