Rethinking, redesigning and renegotiating your legal spend to improve forecasting, risk management and significantly reduce legal costs

Corporate law departments are under pressure to do more with less. With legal fees continuing to climb and litigation increasing, unprecedented economic pressures mean corporate legal budgets are under more scrutiny than ever.

General Counsel must now take a hard look at their legal spend and ask themselves if the legal work they are receiving is being performed by the best firms for the best price. In addition, compliance requirements demand greater transparency into legal spend, liability exposure, and the necessity to directly align results with value received.

So as in-house counsel, how can you take control of your legal spend and strike the right balance between your budget and the company’s legal requirements?

Taking place February 22nd and 23rd 2010, the Legal Spend Management Summit could not come at a better time. Hear from leading General Counsel from companies such as Nestle, Tyco, Genpact, Cisco, Alstom Transport, Unisys and more on how they’ve significantly driven down their legal expenses in the past 24 months - without compromising quality.


This event promises to give you the tools you need to take control of your legal spend, including 15 case studies that will teach you how to:

  • Rethink, redesign and renegotiate your legal budget
  • Directly link law firm billing to value received
  • Assess alternative fee arrangements that drive down costs - and achieve more from traditional billing methods
  • Design and implement metrics, systems and processes necessary to reduce costs and improve law department efficiencies
  • Reduce costs, make better decisions and improve collaboration with outside counsel
  • Develop a measurement framework to assess independent and preferred firm performance and value
  • Construct a legal panel that will increase quality and decrease fees

Join us in London on February 22nd and 23rd 2010 at a two day event that promises to give you the tools you need now reduce your legal spend by up to 25% in the next 18 months. Can you afford not to be there?
