SOMERSET, N.J., September 21, 2009 – Hildebrandt, the leading management consulting firm to the legal market, today announced the introduction of LawVision™, a new consulting service that helps law firms adapt their business models to changing market conditions.
The current economic downturn has focused attention of the legal profession on the basic structural, economic, and work process models that have dominated law firms for many years. Some of the key aspects of currently prevailing models include hourly pricing, lockstep progression and compensation for associates and a profit model based on growth and expansion.
SOMERSET, N.J., and HOUSTON, Dec. 4, 2009 – Hildebrandt and Baker Robbins & Company, the two leading consultancies serving the legal market, announced today that they will merge into a single company, effective Jan. 1, 2010. Both are part of the Business of Law group of Thomson Reuters.
Hildebrandt is the premier management consulting firm serving law firms and corporate and governmental law departments throughout the world. Baker Robbins & Company is the leading technology and business process consulting firm for the same market. Together, the new firm – which will be known as Hildebrandt Baker Robbins – will be the largest and most diversified consultancy serving the legal market, with more than 120 consultants working around the world in a broad range of practice areas.
SOMERSET, NJ, November 18, 2009 – Hildebrandt, the leading management consulting firm to the legal market, today announced the global expansion of Hildebrandt services in Beijing, Hong Kong and Sydney effective January 1, 2010.
The potential growth of the legal profession in Asia is impressive. Global firms continue to invest in the region although many lack a strategic business plan for their offices. Local and regional firms are also growing and we envision some potential consolidation of the market. The biggest challenge for local and regional firms is to put in place a structure and systems that will allow them to compete effectively in this changing market. We would not be surprised if there were consolidation between the growing Chinese firms and a major US or UK firm.
