Corporate legal departments are under the gun to reduce legal costs, and the pressure to do so will only mount as companies continue to trim budgets. Budget cuts; the unpredictable nature of legal spending; uncertainty relating to alternative fee arrangements; selecting and retaining cost-effective outside counsel without compromising on quality; developing and carrying out requests for proposals; bringing more work in-house while also trimming legal staff. These are just some of the challenges facing corporate counsel as they grapple with the pressures of spiraling legal costs and ever-tighter budgets.
The answer is ACI’s 5th National Forum on Reducing Legal Costs, which has been uniquely tailored to provide in-house counsel and legal sourcing managers, as well as private practice attorneys and law firm marketing/business development specialists who are serious about working with their clients to reduce legal costs, with the knowledge that they need to successfully employ cost-reducing procedures both internally and externally.
Come join senior corporate counsel and legal sourcing managers responsible for cost-reduction success stories, as well as leaders from law firms that have pioneered the use of alternative fee arrangements and other innovative cost-reduction initiatives, as they provide conference attendees with a roadmap for navigating the complexities of keeping legal department costs in check. Now in its fifth installment, this event offers unique networking opportunities with senior practitioners from around the nation, including in-house counsel from a wide range of companies and industries.
