Legal IT landscapes 2021

Briefing Frontiers Legal IT landscapes is back to gauge how far the first year of a global pandemic has changed law firms’ attitudes to different types of technology, their spend plans and project priorities. Once again we ask technology and other operational leaders at leading law firms across the Briefing market for a wide range of views – from which businesses pose them the biggest competitive threat to the practicalities of building efficient and productive remote teams? What will hybrid-working really mean once lockdowns ease, and will any new office spaces that result require different or enhanced systems? Where do firms now stand on the road to an operation fully in the cloud, and what impact has the year had on information security pressure points?

And in this year’s wave of the Briefing magic wand: just what would firms spend a spare £100,000 on to make the biggest difference to business in the landscape that confronts them today?

Once again Briefing Frontiers Legal IT landscapes clearly displays and assesses all the data, with commentary from a number of research participants and the perspectives of our partners CTS, Intapp, LexisNexis, Mitie, Netdocuments, Pulsant and Thomson Reuters.

THREAT COLLECTION
