Target the New Work and Business Development

Strategies for an Uncertain Economy

Previously unseen matters are pouring in along with the old — soaking up a good portion of spending.

And clients are seeing more and more reasons to relook at M&A — not to mention the record backlog. Combine this with in-house attrition and retention issues — it all adds up to big spending for outside counsel.
