The In-House Legal Challenge

In-house legal departments are no longer seen simply as legal advisors.

They must be:

- agile, proactive, commercial, pragmatic
‍
- driving revenue- Identifying and mitigating risk- Managing complex regulatory environments

- demonstrating a significant return on the investment the business makes in the legal function

- strategic partners contributing directly to the business’ success

In-house legal teams need to:

- have a deep understanding of the business environment they are working in
‍
- provide real-time insights into and solutions to deal with risk, compliance, and governance
‍
- understand legal operations and deliver an exceptional legal function - resource, processes and templates, efficiency and technology

This shift in expectations means in-house lawyers must be multi-dimensional -balancing legal expertise with business acumen, leadership, and relationship building.
