Sample Talks

Legal Knowledge Management

Reducing costs and expenses is critical for in–house legal departments. In many companies, the law
department must comply with burdensome standards for efficiency and sometimes – outright
skepticism from management and the board about the impact on the bottom line.
You don’t need to pay for the same research and legal work product over and over again – you just need to know how to reuse it.

Contract Management: challenges and practical solutions

Today’s corporate counsel are faced with many challenges, including managing and administering a
constantly increasing amount of legal information, particularly in the area of contracts.
Contract administration is a key component of the legal department’s work. If lawyers do not have a
solid grasp of what is involved, they can waste a considerable amount of time and efforts without
getting any good results.

Technology Solutions for the Modern Law Department

Technology is often overlooked in corporate legal departments, even though established and userfriendly technology can free up time for stretched legal teams to focus on the high risk and highly skilled work that provides a tangible benefit and a real return on investment for a company.
