An experienced panel of in-house counsel, savvy in the ways of internal politics, will discuss successful methods of law department integration, as well as softer skills in developing relationships within the business necessary for the integration of the legal department as a true business partner adding value. All legal departments face the pressures of lowering expenses as a “cost center” while rarely showing value in the traditional sense a business team is familiar with: revenue generation or “profit.” Panelists will share experiences and stories of success and failure, answer your questions and invite you to share your own stories.
