Questions Answered
Got a question you’d like us to find an answer to?
While legal operations as a concept has been around for quite some time – legal operations as a career is relatively nascent. Some organisations are advanced building out their legal ops function while others are just finding their feet.
In a fast moving space we want to provide you with the answers you’re looking for. It could be that you want to understand more about particular facets of legal ops (e.g. KM, document automation, CLM. eDiscovery, etc).
It could be that you want to understand how you can break into legal ops or conversely what skills are required to reach the executive level.
The list of examples is not limited to that though. Feel free to challenge us but please do keep it legal ops-related though!
The question requests are open to all but member requests will take precedence naturally. If you’d like to become a member please click here.
