Trial lawyers Matt Wetherington and Kurt Kastorf are starting an incubator program for lawyers who either want to start their own firms or become shareholders in one, which they say will be unique in offering firsthand experience and advice.

“There’s a difference between telling attorneys how to run a business and sharing how I’m running a business—the decisions I’ve made and how much they cost,” said Wetherington, who just opened his own plaintiffs firm in August. “This is a law firm ride-along.”
