Legal Department Consulting

Legal departments face growing pressure for timely, cost-effective services, prompting investment in strategic cost reduction. Transformation involves more than technology; it requires reshaping collaboration between legal and business operations. Our unified approach focuses on legal operations, consulting, transformation, and integration, assessing large teams to identify opportunities for improvement, automation, and cost savings. Successful transformation enhances quality, consistency, effectiveness, and speed of legal support, allowing lawyers to focus on higher-value work.

Legal departments are faced with the challenge of providing more legal services within a limited budget. Our assistance aims to help clients cut costs by aiding them in various daily legal activities, including contract preparation, negotiation and execution, management of rights, obligations, and value leakage, handling litigation claims, and providing support for legal operations. Clients can tap into our near- and offshore legal and technology delivery teams to access global expertise as needed.

Regulatory radar

Since the global financial crisis, regulatory reform has topped the agenda for financial institutions (e.g. MiFID II, Basel III). Regulations have and will continue to radically change the banking landscape as they seek to rebuild the credibility of the financial markets. There is an inherent risk for financial institutions of missing out on critical topics or taking required actions too late. Moreover, financial institutions must satisfy regulatory consolidation requirements to varying degrees depending on their structure and cross-border business activities. Our Regulatory Radar service makes sure you do not lose sight of any regulatory initiatives. At the same time you will receive a tailor-made solution that analyses regulatory initiatives and draws your attention to potential actions.
