“With my retirement not that many years away, I met with Darren at his office to learn more about his business philosophy. I have to admit I’m not easily impressed, but Darren was able to show me what would work and not work for me. His communication skills are second to none. I transferred all of my investments and accounts to Wurz Financial because I wanted to have the peace of mind that somebody was taking care of my lifetime investments and retirement.” –Jon E.

“Darren not only has served as a wealth of financial knowledge for my family, but he’s guided us every step of the way with explanations of expectations, next steps, best outcome – whatever was best for us.

You are focused.
Growing your law firm and revenue is your priority (and ours too).
But you’re wondering…
1. How do I get to the next stage of growth and maintain my sanity?
2. How do I manage income fluctuations and plan for long-term stability?
3. How can I pay less in taxes and maximize future wealth?
We can help.
Greetings, I’m Darren Wurz, Managing Partner and Chief Wealth Counsel at Wurz Financial Services, and the visionary behind The Lawyer Millionaire. Here, the intersection of strategic financial acumen and legal business success thrives.
Our clients typically aspire to achieve three key objectives:
- Business Growth
- Financial Clarity
- Passive Income
Do you have similar goals?
However, when our clients come to us, we find that they are struggling to achieve these objectives due to a lack of time, increasing financial complexity and a lack of quality advice from their current advisors.
Perhaps you have experienced these same pain points.
As a specialized financial planning team dedicated to serving law firm owners, we intimately understand the distinct challenges you encounter in pursuit of these ambitions. We understand that growing your law firm is your number one priority–and our process supports that goal.
Your time is precious, and the intricacies of managing both personal and business finances can feel overwhelming. To compound matters, the quality financial counsel you seek from your current advisors often falls short of your expectations.
Here’s our unique proposition tailored exclusively for law firm owners like you:
We step into your world as your chief wealth counsel, offering a comprehensive view of your entire financial landscape, seamlessly integrating personal and business finances. Unlike traditional financial advisors who merely skim the surface, we bring a proactive approach that transcends asset-based fees and superficial planning and integrates your personal and business planning.
Our seasoned team of advisors boasts specialized expertise honed through years of dedicated service to law firm owners, delivering unparalleled insight across a spectrum of financial domains. From fostering personal wealth growth to devising business value expansion strategies, we’re committed to empowering you with financial clarity, stability, and enduring prosperity for you and your loved ones.
How We Help You Create Maximum Wealth as a Law Firm Owner:
1. Business Expansion
Transforming a successful law practice into a valuable and sellable asset demands strategic vision and specialized knowledge. Sadly, statistics show that fewer than 30% of small businesses survive beyond the founding generation. Your law firm represents the culmination of your dedication and expertise – you deserve to be compensated for the hard work you have put into building it.
Drawing on our extensive experience with law firms, we will help you protect and build your most valuable financial asset: your law firm. Our focus is helping you build a business that can run without you, even if you never plan to leave. A strong, transferrable business gives you many options as an owner. It puts you in a position to obtain maximum value from a potential buyer, or continue to hold the business and receive investment income while enjoying more time freedom.
Our value growth methodology will get you ready for a future sale and help you make more money and build more wealth right now, while you still own your law firm. By partnering with us as Chief Wealth Counsel, you’re not just securing your financial future – you’re unlocking the full potential of your law firm’s value.
2. Profit Maximization
Despite having a CPA, many law firm owners find themselves overpaying taxes, a statistic highlighted by a Forbes study that found nearly 93% of small business owners my be overpaying on their taxes. Shockingly, 90% of CPAs and financial advisors neglect comprehensive tax planning services.
We break this cycle with proactive year-round tax planning, strategically minimizing your tax liabilities and amplifying your savings.
Furthermore, we recognize the intricate challenge of managing cash flow between your firm and personal accounts. Our expertise extends to building robust cash flow infrastructures and streamlined tracking systems, liberating you from the burden of financial minutiae and empowering you to focus on wealth accumulation with peace of mind.
3. Wealth Growth
Unlock the true potential of your earnings by transcending the limitations of the billable hour. We echo Warren Buffett’s wisdom: “If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.”
Our meticulously tailored financial strategies aim not just at personal wealth growth but at cultivating passive income streams. Sources of alternative income can one day free you from the need to bill and hire so that you can step away from work if you so desire.
We align these strategies seamlessly with your law firm’s growth objectives, ensuring that your assets flourish through diversified investment portfolios and alternative investment vehicles. We also understand that investing in your own law firm may represent the most lucrative investment opportunity you face. We’ll help you balance traditional investments with business opportunities through careful analysis.
Let us guide you towards sustained wealth accumulation, even when you’re not in the office.

Why Do I Work With Lawyers and Law Firm Owners?
The Law Firm Owners’ Financial Lighthouse: Why My Prime Focus is Attorneys and Law Firm Owners
Why dedicate an entire financial planning service to attorneys and law firm owners? While my childhood dreams didn’t revolve around financial planning specifically for this esteemed group, I’ve grown to cherish what I do and the clients I assist, all revered legal professionals.
My initial passion was sparked within the realm of education. I kick-started my professional journey as a high school science teacher. Interestingly, those same skills came to play a central role in my career because at the core of insightful financial planning is sound education. Authentic financial planning extends beyond rows and columns on spreadsheets—it revolves around enlightening and empowering clients with the necessary knowledge to discerningly navigate their financial lives.
After dedicating a few years to teaching, I sought to broaden my horizons. I furthered my education with a master’s degree in financial planning and followed the family tradition by establishing my office in Cincinnati. Through networking, the path led me to attorneys and law firm owners who required the guidance I was equipped to provide. As my client base expanded, a significant portion comprised law firm owners. Soon I realized that these elite clients grappled with distinctive financial challenges that vastly remained unaddressed by mainstream financial advisors. The idea sparked a resolution—I could construct a practice specifically designed for law firm owners.
My long-standing appreciation for lawyers, shaped by gripping murder mystery novels and riveting TV shows like Damages, was supplemented by my work with legal professionals. Immersing in their world, I gained insights into the crossroads of finance and law firm management. The attorneys I proudly serve are integral pillars of their communities, ambitious hard-workers, and exceptionally intelligent. Above all, I hold a steadfast belief in the vital role lawyers play for maintaining a prosperous democracy and safeguarding rights. So yes, recognizing the immense stature of your role in society, it’s not an overstatement to say you are a big deal. It’s an absolute privilege to serve attorneys like you.
