Applying the principles and practice of project management to deliver client legal projects on time and within budget
Legal Project Management applies the principles, processes and practices of project management to the delivery of legal services to ensure the successful delivery of our client’s projects.
In an increasingly complex operating environment, providing legal excellence with a personal feel is no longer enough to get large-scale projects through. Seamless delivery requires greater consistency, clearer communication, better management of scope and budget changes, and continuous improvement.
We have a team of Legal Project Managers who offer strategic and commercial input into the process and will work with you to ensure your projects deliver on time and within budget. We have developed a bespoke methodology over a number of years, encompassing our own experience in major project delivery and also best practice from the sectors in which our clients operate. Our service combines proprietary and other technology solutions offering the optimal mix of people, process and technology.Our Legal Project Management Team will work with you to deliver all types of legal projects. Through implementing our three stage project life-cycle, Engage, Deliver and Close, we manage legal projects more effectively, without compromising quality. We achieve this by managing the scope, budget, risk, resources, stakeholders and communication.
Each of the three stages of the process is designed to deliver the maximum benefit for you, the client. Ensuring that you gain maximum value from your legal project.
We collaborate with you and your legal team to provide tailored advice, support and management throughout the project lifecycle based on your business priorities and objectives. We support our lawyer teams to deliver legal services in the most efficient way by promoting lean and agile ways of working while maintaining focus on your objectives and deliverables. We offer three flexible levels of service: Advise, Support and Manage.
We understand that each project is different and our approach varies depending on the size, scale, impact and the risk associated with the project. We can assist with all aspects of the project lifecycle or with discrete phases or tasks. We can be deployed alongside your legal team or embedded directly on-site with you.
