HELPING YOU CREATE THE PRACTICE OF YOUR DREAMS
And empowering you with the tools and training to get there.
Our Story
PILMMA (Personal Injury Lawyers Marketing and Management Association), is the brainchild of Ken Hardison, an attorney who built not one, but two multi-million-dollar law firms before selling them at age 52.
Ken created PILMMA to share his attorney trade secrets to build a profitable and successful law practice. It has grown into a multi-million-dollar organization with members from all across the United States, Canada, and Australia.
PILMMA started as a part-time venture arising out of Ken’s passion to help other lawyers get out of the 9-5 rat race and significantly increase the amount of free time they have.
Rooted in a deep-felt commitment to help lawyers avoid the mistakes and pitfalls Ken encountered while building his own firms – the goal remains the same:
To help as many lawyers as possible create the practice of their dreams. More profits. More Cases and a law firm that gives you freedom to live the life you want and experience greater success on your own terms.

7 Reasons to Choose PILMMA
PILMMA is Authentically a Cut Above the Rest. Although there are lots of Legal Marketing Groups you can join. Here’s why what we offer our members is Unparalleled.
WE’VE “BEEN THERE, DONE THAT,” AND TEACH YOU HOW TO DO THE SAME.
There’s no substitute for the deep knowledge and authenticity that comes from truly understanding the complexities you face as a law firm owner practicing law while, at the same time, trying to build and market your law firm. Attorney Ken Hardison built and sold two successful law firms from the ground up before starting PILMMA, and his depth of real-firm knowledge and experience shapes what we teach and share with our members.
Think about it; If you wanted to climb Mt. Everest, would you hire someone to help you who has never climbed the mountain before, or taught others to do the same? Of course you wouldn’t. Building a law firm is a lot like climbing a mountain- There’s just no substitute for real life knowledge, experience, and expertise to guide you as you build your law firm.
PILMMA IS BUILT ON YEARS OF EXPONENTIAL KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT IT TAKES TO GROW AND SUSTAIN SUCCESSFUL LAW FIRMS.
PILMMA has been helping lawyers build successful law firms and dominate their respective markets for over 15 years. Ken has worked one-on-one and/or in group settings with thousands of lawyers all across the country. There is no substitute for the depth of knowledge years of experience provides. PILMMA brings that depth of cumulative knowledge to bear in everything we share with our PILMMA members today.
Successful Law Firm marketing means harnessing the very latest Digital Marketing Strategies, while also Leveraging Proven Evergreen Grass Roots Marketing Strategies infused with cutting-edged application- all designed to help lawyers become dominating pillars in their respective communities and markets.
PILMMA’S MEMBER SERVICES IS EXCEPTIONAL.
PILMMA is serious about our Member Services. Our members are an integral part of our PILMMA family, as evidenced by our company’s Core Values.
PILMMA’S 100% IRONCLAD MONEY BACK GUARANTEE IS UNPRECEDENTED.
No other Legal Marketing or Consulting Group offers a full and complete Money-Back Guarantee.
Our commitment to helping lawyers runs deep. We don’t want your money if we can’t help you. That’s why we offer two powerful Guarantees:
- If you join PILMMA’s Basic Membership and aren’t happy after 90 days, we will give you a full 100% refund.
- If you join a PILMMA Mastermind Group and aren’t happy after attending the first meeting, we will give you a full refund. (Although in all the years we’ve offered PILMMA Mastermind group members this offer, no lawyer has ever taken us up on it!).
Other companies ask you to sign long term contracts, but that’s not how PILMMA operates. We understand that PILMMA isn’t for every lawyer- and we don’t want your money if we can’t help you grow. Period.
What have you got to lose? The risk is all on us, not on you.
WE AREN’T PUSHING A HIGH PRICED “SILVER BULLET.”
PILMMA is built on bringing today’s lawyers the very latest Marketing & Management Strategies, but without underlying self-interest. Many marketing companies want you to join up, sign a lengthy contract, and pay them tens of thousands of dollars, with the underlying agenda of pushing their services- like SEO, Social Media and the likes. Their self-interest colors what they teach and bring to you each week or month.
PILMMA isn’t like that. We aren’t selling you a high-priced Silver Bullet, that promises to be the one answer to Law Firm Success.
When Ken was building his law firms, he recognized you can’t just rely on a few key strategies. Marketing in today’s economy, with today’s sophisticated consumers, means employing a litany of strategies. One “Silver Bullet” won’t cut it, not in the long run.
Yes, we hope you will join the PILMMA Mastermind Group when you are ready, and we have a slot open in your market, but we are committed to bringing all our PILMMA Basic members a host of strategies to help you grow your law firm. It’s why we are Content driven, and push out Webinars, Q & A’s, Zoom Meetings, our Monthly Magazine, Intake Training, Monthly Marketing and Management Team Roundtables, Video training modules and more to all our PILMMA Basic and Mastermind members each month.
PILMMA GIVES YOU COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGIES FOR LAW FIRM GROWTH BY BRINGING YOU THE LATEST IN BOTH LEGAL MARKETING AND MANAGEMENT TO SCALE YOUR LAW FIRM FOR DRAMATIC AND SUSTAINABLE RESULTS.
The key to Real Law Firm Growth requires both Effective Marketing and Powerful Management Strategies. One without the other will not produce real and sustainable results that allow you to Dominate your Market and Scale your Firm for Continued Growth over time.
That’s why PILMMA brings you the Best Proven Strategies in both Legal Marketing and Law Firm Management.
What good is making the phone ring if you can’t convert those leads into cases? What good is getting more cases if you don’t have the infrastructure in place to ensure you make a profit? If you don’t have the superstar employees on board to help you work the cases? If you don’t have the systems, processes, and procedures in place to Scale your firm?
Because PILMMA is built by lawyers, for lawyers, we understand the intrinsic relationship between Legal Marketing and Management and are committed to bringing both of these essential elements together to help our members GROW highly successful law firms.
PILMMA’S MASTERMIND GROUPS ARE THE GOLD STANDARD IN LEGAL MASTERMIND GROUPS. PERIOD.
Ken Hardison hand-picks and facilitates every single PILMMA Mastermind Group.
Ken has been mentoring, organizing, and facilitating Mastermind Groups for 17 years. There’s no substitute for the depth and breadth of knowledge this level of experience and expertise brings to the table. It’s one of the reasons PILMMA’s Mastermind Groups are one of a kind.
