How the GCs of Honeywell, Flex, and other Fortune 500 clients are changing the legal market in this new era. Nice to work with them and believe - based on what we see other GCs doing - it's a leading indicator of a big market shake-up. More on this soon. law.com/corpcounsel/2020/07/…

We'll share 7 key findings from the GC Thought Leaders Experiment. Finding #1: Clients care A LOT about solutions focus even vs. other key attributes. Would be good to know how law firms are teaching this. Read more at advancelaw.com/thought-leade…

AdvanceLaw is proud to be a key sponsor of WIPL (Women, Influence & Power in Law) for the second year in a row. Our own Katherine Shell and Brittany Warmington are looking forward to attending this week. event.law.com/corpcounsel-wi…
Smart piece by a true visionary @jordan_law21. One quote: "This is not about 'computers are coming to take our jobs' ...This is about something deeper and more significant: The nature of what is being bought and sold within the legal market is changing" law21.ca/2019/09/the-new-leg…
Agree it's about engagement from both firm and client. Article also has powerful graph force ranking service attributes (e.g., responsiveness, solutions-focus, expertise) based on how strongly correlated with client likelihood to recommend. biglawbusiness.com/insight-i…
Is the Honeymoon Period Between Clients + Law Firms Real?
biglawbusiness.com/insight-i…
Yes
@AdvanceLaw confirms gut: both cost efficiency and client + solution focus decline after 2 years
Changing this requires active engagement from _both_ GC + firm

What happens after the honeymoon? For too many law firms and their clients, the magic doesn't last. In today's @BLaw Insight, Josh Sherbin, GC of TriMas, examines @advancelaw GC Thought Leaders data showing how relationships usually cool off over time. biglawbusiness.com/insight-i…

Flat fees work
New findings from @AdvanceLaw data across multiple clients + firms
[Article by Panasonic GC]
news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law…
Conclusions: flat fees save money, don't hurt quality, and improve with practice
Great question by a great GC. So much insight here in such a short piece re: what GCs most value in law firms (and how GCs bear responsibility too). Highly recommend for law firm partners and corporate counsel. biglawbusiness.com/insight-i…

Panasonic North America's General Counsel Jessica Hodkinson shares her thoughts on flat fees versus hourly rates and the impact on cost-effectiveness, via @BLaw.
We’ve all heard quite a lot about flat vs. hourly fees, but this is the first (ever) GC article using regression analysis on whether flat fees actually work or not. (And it demystifies what 250 GCs do at AdvanceLaw.) news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law… @BLaw
