Profit Engineering for High-Volume Bankruptcy
Miller & Miller Law is a $6.8M revenue firm with 59 employees, 7 offices, and 1,754 cases opened annually. You dominate Milwaukee bankruptcy. But under the hood, disconnected systems, manual processes, and zero automation are costing you more than half a million dollars every year in lost revenue alone.
Your CRM is broken. Your dashboard doesn't match reality. Your COO spends 5-6 hours a week on spreadsheets that should run themselves. 120 Chapter 13 cases dismissed annually with no tracking of why. 52 cases ghosted with no re-engagement workflow. 5,920 cases sitting in your system with no case manager assigned.
This proposal outlines how NB OS — Iron Noodle's AI operating system — replaces your broken stack, recovers your lost revenue, and puts Miller & Miller on track for 20% profit margins.
Iron Noodle conducted a comprehensive operational assessment of Miller & Miller Law using 33+ source documents, on-site observation, payroll data, Clio API data, and interviews with your leadership team. Here's what we found.
| Tool | Cost | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 4Eyes CRM | — | Broken — data saves to nowhere |
| HubSpot | $3,100/mo | Contract expiring, underutilized |
| Springboard (BI) | $1,500/mo | Data doesn't match reality |
| CTM (Phones) | — | Voicemail routing broken |
| Diener (Training) | $5,000/mo | Walked away mid-engagement |
| MWS Enterprise (PPC) | $4,500/mo | Active |
| Proven Marketing | $3,185/mo | Active |
| Firm Outcomes (Leads) | $8,143/mo | Active |
| Fractional CFO | $2,500/mo | Active |
| Total Vendor Spend | $28,593/mo | $343K/yr |
78% of your processes score a 1 (ad hoc) or 0 (absent). For comparison, a well-run firm of your size should be at 3.0+.
Your ad spend is 2x the industry benchmark (5-8%). You're spending $528 to acquire each case. Refunds at 3.4% of gross ($230K) signal intake quality or client satisfaction issues. Total consulting at $201K/yr with four separate consultants — and profit is still only 10%.
NB OS is not a CRM. It's not a phone system. It's not a dashboard. It's all of those things, unified into one AI-powered operating system. Voice AI, email, SMS, intake, documents, scheduling, marketing, reporting — all running through one brain, one database, one decision engine.
NB OS doesn't just save money. It recovers revenue you're currently losing, eliminates tools you're currently paying for, and frees up your highest-paid people from work the system should do itself.
| Category | Annual Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Ch13 Dismissal Recovery | $420,000 | 120 cases × $3,500 avg fee |
| Ghosted Case Recovery | $130,000 | 52 cases × $2,500 avg fee |
| HubSpot Replacement | $37,200 | CRM consolidated into NB OS |
| Springboard Replacement | $18,000 | Dashboards built into NB OS |
| Diener Replacement | $60,000 | IRT support replaces vendor |
| COO Time Recovery | $20,760 | 5-6 hrs/week × COO rate |
| Labor Efficiency | $50,000+ | Doc collection automation |
| Total Addressable Value | $735,960/yr |
Your current profit margin is 10% ($608K on $6.8M). Recovering even half of the identified leakage ($275K) plus vendor savings ($136K) moves you to $1.02M net income — 15% margin. Full recovery puts you at $1.34M — 20% margin. Same revenue. Same headcount. Better systems.
| Module | What It Does | What It Replaces |
|---|---|---|
| AI Voice | 24/7 call answering, bilingual EN/ES, consultation booking, missed-call textback | CTM (broken voicemail), after-hours dead calls |
| GetDocs.ai | Automated doc collection portal + Array credit pull integration | Manual spreadsheets (7 collectors, 1,798 cases) |
| CRM | Full pipeline management, lead tracking, contact enrichment | 4Eyes (broken) + HubSpot ($3,100/mo) |
| Command Center | Bankruptcy-focused dashboard: pipeline funnel, leakage alerts, team workload | Springboard ($1,500/mo, data wrong) |
| Ch13 Automation | Dismissal risk monitoring, deadline tracking, automated alerts | COO manual spreadsheets (5-6 hrs/week) |
| Case Re-engagement | Automated follow-up sequences for ghosted and stalled cases | Nothing (52 cases/yr lost) |
| Workload Balancing | Case assignment visibility, CM load distribution | Nothing (5,920 unassigned cases) |
| Research Monitor | WI bankruptcy law updates, local rule changes, means test thresholds | Manual research |
