Preventive Law

 

We can help your department take practical steps to go beyond effective lawyering on current projects to establish a strategic approach to business unit or enterprise preventive law.

 

We will guide your client service teams or practices group through the process of evaluating alternative approaches to organizing a preventive law strategy.  Using a carefully developed set of criteria, we'll help your team identify the critical business processes that may need an updated legal review.  Taking into account the limited time available to your lawyers, we'll guide their planning sessions to set up realistic and productive ways to gain the collaboration of clients and develop a preventive law plan that can be achieved.

 

The plans made by your various teams can be rolled-up into a department-wide plan that includes metrics and expected benefits for the company.  This will result in an orderly and astute approach to preventive law that will enable your department to focus on the most significant potential legal risks in partnership with clients.

 

Our goal is to help you create an organizing framework for preventive law activities by the legal staff so that your efforts are focused on the right priorities, efficiently organized to avoid missteps and wasted efforts, and packaged in a way that enables you to gain client buy-in and collaboration.
