The organization of a corporate law department, its management, subsidiary or practice groups, industry groups and office locations can be critical to the effectiveness of the in-house legal function. We can evaluate whether your current structures promote your strategic objectives, support your company and department's values and culture and optimize effective management.
As law practice has grown more complex and the costs of outside counsel soar, the need for skilled corporate law department leaders who can manage effectively has increased dramatically. We can conduct an evaluation of your leadership strengths and needs at all levels – department management, subsidiary and business units or practice groups. Implementing performance programs will provide a sustainable structure for ongoing improvement of law department management.
Talent management is the 21st Century challenge that law departments must meet to be successful. We can provide sophisticated tools to help you identify, motivate, develop and retain your professionals.
Including the perspectives and talents of a diverse talent pool fulfills your company's priorities and enriches your department. We can help you identify and retain those valuable skills and perspectives by taking advantage of an array of sophisticated assessment tools and establishing an effective retention program.
The complex legal issues and compliance responsibilities faced by law departments have never demanded more vigilance of corporate counsel than in recent years. Corporate law departments must carefully evaluate the major risks and devise, manage and audit systems that minimize those risks. We will help you identify priorities, assess systems and costs and develop implementation and training programs.
