Legal Operations

The way that legal services get delivered is changing dramatically. The globalization of the world s economies, the explosion in data, the advent of ubiquitous connectivity, and the significant advances in information technologies over the past decade all put new demands on lawyers. Most large companies now have legal operations groups to help the law department deliver better legal services, faster and cheaper. Law firms often have analogous groups, typically under the Chief Innovation Partner. Law graduates possessing legal operations skills are in high demand.
