The CLOC Webinar Series is Sponsored by CobbleStone Software

Targets are hitting legal ops left, right and center – two of the biggest are 1) using AI, and 2) hitting ESG goals. However, very little is currently being done to analyze how this pair of extremely important goals for legal operations are interacting with each other – do you know the impact of AI on your sustainability goals? How about the impact of your tech stack, many parts of which are introducing AI functionality? Most importantly for legal operations, how do we enable our teams with technology with all of these considerations? 

 This webinar will delve into the sustainability elements of the AI boom that are not well-considered and will likely be hitting us all hard in the very near future. The key focus of this will be driving effective adoption and use of AI and minimizing friction, while staying abreast of the important sustainability elements and providing best practices for holding supply chains accountable for their use of AI. 

Learning Objectives: 

1) Analyze the impacts of AI on your tech stack  

2) Confidently and effectively adopt AI while still maintaining compliance with ESG targets  

3) Think out-of-the-box on where to look for both ESG risks and potential savings  

4) Understand best practices in holding suppliers accountable for AI

Death of the Hourly Rate and The Critical Need for Matter Planning

02/04/2025 |

Brought to you by the CLOC Education Advisory Council

 

The economics of legal practice and business operations are quickly changing—is your law department prepared? It increasingly seems like today’s law firm billing rate hikes have no basis in reality. As an example of where things are headed, the 2024 ACC CLO Survey indicates that 58% were impacted by law firm rate hikes (23% saying these increases have been difficult to manage), while 42% said they received a cost-cutting mandate from their organization. At the same time, corporate clients are demanding more transparent and predictable billing processes based on alternative fees.  

The CLOC LPM Committee has spent the last year putting significant thought into how to change this equation, identifying ways to transition away from “back end” invoice review and towards “front end” matter planning. To succeed, legal operations professionals must design and implement better matter scoping and pricing/budgeting processes and policies and implement requirements for outside counsel to proactively manage to their estimates.  

Applying knowledge gained from industry experts, this webinar presentation will show you how to effectively plan and price, allowing you to increase resource productivity while reducing legal spend. It’s finally time to shift the hourly rate paradigm and institute process improvements in support of better matter oversight and “win-win” billing relationships. Come learn how. 

Learning Objectives:  

1. Build an effective matter/project plan, request for matter proposal and updated billing guidelines.  

2. Learn budgeting concepts & templates designed to create “win-win” billing relationships.  

3. Identify ways to obtain buy-in from lawyers so as to institute new planning and pricing paradigms.
