THE LEADING CONSULTANT TO LAW DEPARTMENTS... WORLDWIDE

We have established a premier reputation as the leading consultants to law departments throughout the U.S., Europe and other parts of the world. We have worked with over 500 law departments in all industry sectors as well as at all levels of government and non-profit organizations.

Our Law Department Consulting practice offers a uniquely broad and integrated range of services to law departments - strategic, management, work process and technology, benchmarking, and best practices.  We have deep legal functional experience in specific areas, such as legal risk and compliance management; contract management; litigation/dispute management, intellectual property; transactional/deal work; and corporate secretary.

Our consulting work is supported by the leading annual benchmarking and compensation survey for law departments that we have conducted since the mid-1980s.  For over two decades we have identified, defined and applied best practices that produce results for our clients.

Outside the U.S., we possess unmatched experience working with clients in the public and private sectors in Canada, the United Kingdom and Europe, Middle East, Africa, Australia and New Zealand, as well as the Asia Pacific region.

Much of our work involves a complete review of the legal function.  Typical focus areas in such reviews, or in stand-alone projects, include:

• Client Alignment & Services
  
• Strategic Issues Analysis & Planning
  
• Organizational Design and Structure
  
• Legal Service Delivery Models
  
• Leadership & Management
  
• Staffing and Talent Management
  
• Legal Cost and Resource Management
  
• Performance Metrics and Management
  
• Operations and Administrative Management
  
• Outside Counsel Management
• Legal Risk and Compliance Management
  
• Systems and Technologies (e.g., matter management, e-billing, document management, knowledge management)
  
  

Your organization has business goals it wants to effectively meet. End results are important, but how you proceed is critical too. On time. Well-organized. Within budget. Carefully considered.

Our advisory and implementation services include a full understanding of legal business processes and strategy combined with technical knowledge. Our comprehensive suite of integrated services allows us to provide innovative, practical, and cost-effective solutions that help our clients manage firm/department business issues regardless of medium, structure, or location.
