Corporate Legal Department Management Software
Corporate legal departments are faced with many unique challenges and obstacles, especially when it comes to technology. Their concerns are distinct and different from that of law firms so standard law firm technology solutions are not always a perfect fit. Unlike law firms, corporate legal departments are part of a bigger enterprise and must operate under a different set of rules than private law firms which can change how information must be handled.
As legal costs for corporate legal departments continue to rise, and the volume and complexity of the legal department’s workload increase, legal officers must identify new ways to control their legal cost and manage potential risk without compromising on departmental efficiency.
Some of the key challenges that corporate legal departments face include
- Mandates to better contain the high costs of litigation and other legal expenses
- Keeping up with an increasingly complex regulatory environment to ensure corporate compliance
- Fragmented and inefficient business processes (e.g., information saved locally in spreadsheets, manual and paper-based procedures, use of phone calls and email to gather information from outside counsel)
- Reliance upon a highly complex portfolio of legal and enterprise systems, which is expensive to maintain, hard for staff to learn and use, and limits reporting across all data
- Lack of visibility into legal risk, outside counsel spend and value, and legal operations
- Rapid globalization of business, which requires legal departments to integrate processes and share information across an increasingly widespread legal team
