About the webinar

The legal industry has been on a slow digital transformation journey over the last decade. As a result of the novel Coronavirus pandemic, law firms were forced to very quickly adapt. Processes and technology once thought to be impossible to implement suddenly had to become a reality in order for law firms to continue to conduct business and service their clients.

In this roundtable webinar, litigation practice leaders and lawyers at leading law firms shared their perspectives on adapting to accelerating changes and associated risks in managing people, processes, and technology pre-, during, and post-pandemic.
