Although globalization offers tremendous promise, it also presents companies with many new challenges. Among them is the need to develop creative, efficient, and responsive functional models for the provision of legal services. Companies establishing operations beyond their home market must decide whether and how to create in-house legal teams to support the broad spectrum of legal needs in other countries. This article offers a glimpse into the myriad of issues that surround those decisions and outlines how some global company law departments have structured themselves in response.
