If you’ve been a litigator on the outside, welcome to a whole new ball game. As in-house counsel, your focus is not just on getting those pleadings filed, but also implementing litigation holds, managing outside counsel, conducting investigations, analyzing your position, determining strategy, and much more. And it is not just about conducting the litigation. It is also about taking steps and creating programs to avoid litigation, performing cost benefit analysis and risk assessment to determine whether to get in, stay in, or get out, and conducting a thorough post mortem of each case so that you acquire a very long educational list of “lessons learned” that will direct you in the future.
