Deloitte 2012 Corporate Counsel SurveyEmbracing a changing world? |
As continuing global financial uncertainty, external and internal pressures remain the reality for Australian business, the legal services landscape is also facing a wave of change as big international firms seek growth opportunities in the Asia-Pacific region and legal process outsourcing providers continue to gain traction.
In this environment, Corporate Counsel in both the private and public sectors are under pressure to manage their costs more effectively, embrace different ways of doing things and further improve business efficiency.
To prepare this 2012 Corporate Counsel Survey, Deloitte has focused on three key areas faced by the top end of the legal services supply chain:
- Globalisation and the current economic environment;
- Outsourcing and offshoring; and
- Social media
The results serve as an interesting weather vane for where the multiple tiers of the legal industry are at present, and where they might be heading.
