One clear message from General Legal Counsel is, “law firms must lower fees and follow increasingly restrictive guidelines.” In addition, law firms are now being asked what type of process improvement framework, the firm is deploying. This CRE8 Independent Consultant white paper focuses on internal and external signs that require law firm process improvement and provides a discussion of methodologies, areas, and framework.

Areas of the white paper include the following. What are the signs that your firm needs process improvement? What type of process improvement methodologies exist for law firms? Where can process improvement be deployed in a law firm? How should your law firm proceed? A checklist. How can CRE8 Independent consultants be of help? And a note from the author, George Dunn, President CRE8 Independent consultants.
