Founders don’t just build companies.
They build legacies.
One founder’s journey is changing how every owner and leader protects what matters. The Genius Handoff isn’t just a service. It’s a movement.
A Business Built on Hard Lessons and a Commitment to Legacy
Afterwards, Matthew started over and built a new law firm from scratch. Seven years later, he faced a lifethreatening health scare. He realized he was repeating the same mistakes, this time with no well-groomed son to take over. He survived and spent the next few years not only designing an emergency plan and a successful exit for his company but building the blueprint for COtingency so other founders wouldn’t have to start over the hard way.
That’s why COtingency exists. It is here to capture what matters before it’s too late.
Don't Let Your Genius Disappear
Don’t wait for life or business to force your hand. Protect your genius now, and don’t let your business, your people, or your family lose what should be handed forward.
The COtingency Manifesto
At COtingency, we believe that legacy is more than what’s left behind to be collected. It is what is handed forward, understood, and ready to be grown by whoever takes the helm next.
We’ve seen what happens when genius exits the building. We have seen teams stumble, cultures fade, and empires collapse. Not because of bad markets, but because what truly made them great was never written down, never taught, never transferred. We refuse to let another leader’s wisdom get lost to memory.
We believe the best companies aren’t just built, they are transmitted playbooks, living and breathing in the hands of the next generation.
We built COtingency not as a service, but as a mission.
Extract your genius with zero disruption.
Build a living record that captures everything that matters.
Transfer it to your team and successors with full protection and clarity.
We’re here so that you, the leader, never become a ghost in your own business story. So that your team, your clients, your industry, and your family can keep building on everything you’ve discovered. So that your life’s work doesn’t evaporate in a transition. So that the how survives the who.”
The Genius Handoff is not just a playbook it’s a promise.
