GLS Briefing Your Legal Team - 101 Training™ (Standard)
How to get the best from your legal team
The Problem
Poor quality instructions drive legal support inefficiencies
Related challenges include:
- poor instructions cause time and resource wastage
- poor instructions cause interdepartmental frustration
- poor instruction to external lawyers drives cost overruns
- the client might not always know what support they need
- lawyers can be hard to deal with – especially for junior team members
- you don’t want them to waste time answering questions you didn’t ask
- vocational skills based training is frequently overlooked
- a good instruction creates project efficiency
- internally delivered training doesn’t always hit the mark
Wouldn’t it be great if the internal client and its lawyers were working together variously.
