HILDEBRANDT BAKER ROBBINS has teamed up with Legal Sales and Service Organization (LSSO) and faculty from George Washington University to offer a program on process improvement and project management developed specifically for the legal industry. This training is offered by leading experts who have led process improvement and project management in law firms and who have industry experience from organizations who embraced these concepts long before law firms. The most valuable approaches for law firms have been chosen, language has been customized, and exercises and case studies have been developed based on real-life situations facing law firm leaders and managers, to make the program relevant for participants in law firms. In addition, we will discuss and demonstrate the tools that project managers use to successfully track progress from start to finish. The links between project management and process improvement will be discussed and clarified throughout the training.
In addition to this three-day workshop, we offer an executive briefing (two to four hours, depending on the desired level of depth and the audience) which provides an overview intended for Executive Committees, practice group leaders or all partners. It is designed to provide an understanding of basic project management and process improvement terminology and some of the “best practices” in law firms using these approaches today.
HILDEBRANDT BAKER ROBBINS also offers in-house training on project management, process improvement (in conjunction with LSSO), or both topics if you prefer to have a customized program for your law firm. We can tailor the course to a one- to three -day offering depending on the level of depth desired.

Training Objectives
The goals of the three-day training program are to provide the fundamentals of project management and process improvement to law firm professionals. Upon completing the course, participants will receive a certificate for the Introduction to Law Firm Project Management and Process Improvement. Participants will have learned specific skills and approaches they can begin to apply immediately to look for process improvement opportunities and to manage projects more efficiently and effectively. They will also have earned a “White Belt” certification in law firm process improvement from LSSO. Both disciplines – Project Management and Process Improvement – require additional coursework and experience to reach expert status. This introductory course will provide a strong foundation and will enable you to apply basic concepts in your firm immediately and to decide if you want to pursue more advanced training in either discipline. After the initial foundational program, attendees can proceed, if desired, to take additional coursework or complete other advanced degrees in project management.
