Legal Services - Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
The legal landscape has changedClients, as informed purchasers, expect to be in control of their legal services, and part of the team.Lawyers want to be trusted advisors, bringing value to the table, rather than undertaking process work.The focus is on outcomes and return on investment, rather than the billable hour.Lawyers and clients value legal services by reference to the time spent and the tasks undertaken. This is not how other professional service providers work, nor how other purchases are made.
