Krystal Champlin-Gerage is the founder and CEO of RJH Consulting, and one of the most sought-after law firm consultants in the country. With over a decade of embedded experience working inside law firms of every size and practice area, she has built her reputation on one thing: delivering results that attorneys can measure.
Krystal’s work sits at the intersection of operational strategy, leadership development, and cultural transformation. She doesn’t diagnose problems from a boardroom — she gets inside the firm, understands how it actually runs, and builds the systems and people infrastructure that make growth sustainable. Attorneys who have worked with Krystal describe her as someone who can immediately identify what’s costing the firm and what needs to change — and then stay in the work until it does.
Her core areas of focus include strategic planning, operational efficiency and systems development, financial reporting and profitability, staff development and organizational design, and executive coaching for attorneys. She is a Certified Executive Coach, Certified Emotional Intelligence Practitioner, Certified DiSC Trainer, and holds a Six Sigma Lean certification — credentials she applies directly to client engagements
Beyond RJH, Krystal serves as CEO of Maverick Coaching Solutions, where she applies the same methodology to leaders across professional services industries. She serves as an advisor to a legal technology company, volunteers with her local SCORE chapter, and is regularly sought for expert commentary on business and leadership topics in legal industry publications. She also teaches leadership courses at the state level.
Krystal’s philosophy is straightforward: great law firms are built, not born. With the right strategy, the right systems, and the right people in the right seats, any firm can operate at a level its attorneys never thought possible. That’s what she comes to work every day to prove.
