Innovation

Legal innovation is the heart of our business.

We are strategists to professional service firms.

We work with our clients on strategy engagements, market analysis, competitive analysis and research to quantify an otherwise qualitative market.

At its essence, strategy is problem solving. Whether you are seeking revenue growth, market entry or improved profitability, the best approach for you will depend on your unique circumstances.

Case Study #1: Asia-Pacific Strategy Review

CHALLENGE: A $10.5 billion network of top tier independent law firms with 15 member firms across 19 countries in the Asia-Pacific region needs to understand the competitive landscape of 15 countries to gauge strategic opportunities for member firms in the region.

APPROACH: We used market data to quantify and map the competitive landscape across the Asia-Pacific region and then engaged member firm leaders to collect their on-the-ground perspectives of competitive threats and strategic opportunities.

OUTCOME: We quantified the competitive landscape and opportunities for member firms in the Asia-Pacific region. The network used this data to engage its member firms in building a referral network to better compete for clients and business.

 

Case Study #2: Design Thinking for Legal Services

CHALLENGE: The legal department of a major Australian technology company wanted to improve the way that it engaged with the broader business for BAU legal risk assessments.

APPROACH: We facilitated a design thinking based workshop that pulled together a multi-disciplinary team, identified bottlenecks to existing processes, and surfaced new approval pathways and processes to circumvent these bottlenecks.

OUTCOME: Our client created a suite of proactive elements that now form the basis of a strategy for improving the customer experience in internal delivery and consumption of legal services.

 

Case Study #3: Designing technology adapted for specific needs of lawyers

CHALLENGE: A transactional team at an international law firm wanted to identify the most contentious issues that are likely to arise in their negotiations of certain legal documents.

APPROACH: We examined information that was available individually and collectively to each member of the team, undertook a data wrangling exercise, and proposed a solution that utilises the available data in new ways.

OUTCOME: Together with an AI partner who specialises in legal language processing, we proposed a software dashboard that can provide insights into such contentious issues.
