Survey of Law Firm Economics, General Counsel Edition


Description

The Survey of Law Firm Economics – 2009 General Counsel Edition is a unique resource for law department managers.  Drawing directly from the industry standard Survey of Law Firm Economics, the 2009 General Counsel Edition provides a wealth of data that will help in-house counsel evaluate and control outside counsel expenses with far greater accuracy and efficiency.

Law department leaders can use the survey to evaluate their outside counsel's hourly billing rates, billable hours and financials relative to comparable law firms.  The statistics included in the survey represent broad performance benchmarks against which any individual firm can be measured.  Using this information, law department management can compare their outside counsel's performance with those of the profession as a whole, as well as with firms of similar size, geographic location, population, practice specialty, etc. 

This survey will be particularly useful to General Counsel, managing lawyers, administrators, and office or department heads who already make comparative analyses of the various outside counsel statistical data and metrics.  

Published annually.
