I moderated a session at yesterday’s Consero virtual forum. The title of the panel was “ Predicting the Future: How will the Enforcement and Litigation Profile Change over the Next Four Years.”  My two panelists were two senior in house lawyers: Erika Engelson of Deutsche Bank and Brendan Gibbon of Societe Generale.  Here are some highlights of the discussion.

For a variety of reasons, pandemic-related and not, today’s law departments continue to face budget tightening, hiring freezes and furloughs. Thinly staffed law departments that have already been trying to do more with less may find it nearly impossible to keep up now.

Dear QuisLexians,

So near yet so far…

Many of the tools that garner the attention for improving contract management address the later stages of the contract lifecycle or post-contract obligation and relationship management.

If your legal department is struggling to focus on strategic objectives amid ever-increasing contract volumes, contract standardization and automation can make life easier for your team while also improving outcomes.
