Uncovering Rate Negotiation Secrets: Why There is Variability Among Corporate Legal Departments
Description
Did you know that the mean hourly rate paid by some corporate law departments (CLDs) is almost 60% less than the mean rate paid by peers in the same industry? Is there a reasonable explanation for this difference? What are the successful CLD’s doing to better manage their rate negotiations?
In this session, hear industry veterans engage in a lively discussion structured around a groundbreaking analysis of rate data from LegalVIEW - the largest body of legal performance data in the world-- that anonymously ranks some of the largest, most sophisticated corporate law departments in terms of how effective they are at obtaining favorable rates.
