Does your external counsel ever come across as disconnected? Many law firms desire a deeper understanding of their clients' business operations, structure and ways of working. Many businesses, in turn, wish that their external counsel had a clearer appreciation for the issues impacting their operations, were up to speed with their current business activities and initiatives, and were more closely attuned to their corporate culture. Introducing a secondment program is a great way to achieve many of these goals.
