In a rapidly evolving legal market, Law Firm KPIs by Mori Kabiri is the book many of us in legal finance and analytics have been waiting for. As Director of FP&A, I routinely face the challenge of translating mountains of firm data into insight, strategy, and action. Kabiri’s book provides not only a taxonomy of over 80 clearly defined KPIs but a much-needed framework for turning law firm data into a shared language of performance and value. The book’s value lies in three core strengths: 1. Clarity and Practicality: Each KPI is laid out with definition, calculation, data sources, pitfalls, trend insights, and improvement strategies. Whether you're assessing realization, partner profitability, or AI adoption rates, the format allows for immediate application without wading through unnecessary academic detail. 2. Audience-Aware Structure: Kabiri understands the varied roles within a law firm—from managing partners to HR and legal ops—and aligns each metric to its relevant stakeholders. This makes it easier to drive cross-functional alignment. 3. Forward-Thinking with an Operational Backbone: Particularly impressive is the inclusion of metrics around Alternative Fee Arrangements (AFAs), AI impact, knowledge reuse, and cost-to-serve measures like Operating Cost per Billable Hour (OCPBH).

Mori Kabiri what’s gonna be on the final?

I also have a copy of this book on my home desk waiting for the holidays to be done, so I can dig in.

Thanks for putting together such a comprehensive book. I can't wait to dive in.

Such impressive drive and dedication to helping make the ecosystem the best. 👏 👏 👏

A good complement to your initial book.

To anyone looking to elevate their legal function, this is a book you shouldn’t miss! It’s available in both English and Spanish.

As somebody who has been tasked with heading up a legal operation department, this book has been very helpful and detailed to give me a better idea of what to look and aim for in efficiently running the law department. I recommend it for anyone who is beginning to create a Legal Operations department or is already involved but looking to further their progress.

This looks awesome! I will certainly be buying this!

I believe that the guidance in this legal operations book is a very good example and provides a huge amount of material. You need to review it calmly and see how to get the best out of it, but it brings excellent tips that we, as lawyers, don't naturally have. We're not used to working with charts or being very organized with information, and I have no doubt this is something we must implement and learn little by little.
