ServicesCorporate Clients: Without In-House Counsel

The Essential Proposition and Benefits

Our basic proposition comprises (in simple terms):

  1. Identifying the most appropriate lawyer for your matter, set against detailed criteria: type (barrister or solicitor), specialism, experience (partner, associate, junior), size (small, mid, large, niche) and location (London or regional);
  2. Ensuring that you are paying the keenest price for their services, by scoping for accurate pricing, tendering or benchmarking for pricing tension, aggregating buying power, introducing process efficiencies, and recommending a solution combining (1) and (2); and
  3. Managing delivery (from a service and cost perspective) by monitoring performance against scope and compliance with agreed processes, settling out of scope questions, scrutinising fees, and securing delivery to cost.

 

The benefits are:

  • Saving of valuable time for the Client team,
  • Accessing the right, highest quality assistance and advice,
  • Obtaining exceptional market tested value and cost certainty that would not otherwise be achievable, and
  • Having the option to retain existing Counsel coupled with KC disciplines which deliver the same service and cost benefits.
