LEGAL MANAGEMENT CONSULTING

LEGAL MANAGEMENT CONSULTING: OVERVIEW

The most powerful legal management strategies bolster shareholder value by developing a proprietary set of actions that make the “whole” worth more than the sum of its parts. All tactical decisions of the legal department should align with a high-level legal management consulting plan that is based on clear objectives. It is imperative that the plan provides both long term direction and boundaries. Using an array of strategies developed over years of working within the industry with Fortune 500 corporate legal departments, Argopoint is able to effectively formulate and implement tailored management solutions for corporate legal departments. Argopoint creates customized strategies ranging from cost-cutting to industry overviews for our clients using industry best practices and cutting- edge services developed through years of experience.

Legal management consulting: SAVINGS AND SOLUTIONS

Argopoint’s experience within the industry allows us to gain a unique understanding of the increased pressures placed on corporate legal departments.  The changing pressures and increasingly impactful decisions made by legal departments create a dynamic in which management becomes crucial.  Argopoint tailors solutions to each corporate legal department, analyzing costs and looking at both short- and long- run goals and forecasts to effectively encompass the needs of our clients in our strategies.

For many companies, cost cutting measures are rarely invoked effectively and/or originally. The normal un-innovative standard would be to cut most standard costs. For instance, the first techniques a company would implement are “cutting practices.” These practices range from staff reductions or lowering outside counsel rates. These techniques can be effective, but more often are not enough. Argopoint strategically works directly with corporate legal departments at all levels to ensure effective strategies are devised and implemented. But, above all, Argopoint’s strategies lend themselves to be sustainable, long lasting, cost reducing and efficiency increasing. Our approaches, based on industry expertise and data, have helped many legal departments overcome both internal and external problems by effective legal management consulting.For a list of specific services we provide, please check our services section from the top bar. Efficiency data that we receive from companies combined with benchmarking metrics and a long standing experience in the field provides the opportunity to help legal management consulting in recognizing points where there are opportunities to increase in house effectiveness. Data on user satisfaction can show the General Counsel the areas where most of the internal value is created in non-monetary terms, which can effect legal management consulting strategy creation. Cost data collected internally or via our tools can provide insight to the internal connections and workflow within the firm. This external insight will help streamlining the legal management consulting process when combined with our expertise and innovative results driven approach to Legal Management Consulting.

And to keep information secure, our industry leader data security and non-disclosure agreements, at every level of corporate interaction, assure that names, data, and profile information are nothing less than completely secure in Argopoint, LLC. All legal management consulting questions and decisions are clearly executed with industry knowledge. However, Argopoint does not reference any real entities associated with this knowledge. Furthermore, we understand the value of the deadline given to us by a general counsel. Specifically, in our work, we have dealt with numerous constricted deadlines to aid with various issues regarding legal management consulting and we have always abided by deadlines that we agreed to. Argopoint takes these matters with the utmost priority. We also understand that some departments may be afraid of inefficiencies within consulting large litigations. Due to our abundant experience with large litigations, Argopoint will not be bogged down by these lawsuits in the legal management consulting process.
