GLS Legal Dept Service Charter™
From US$3,999
The Problem
You do not have an agreed service protocol in place with your internal client.
Related challenges include:
- the lack of clear service levels exposes you to unreasonable client demands
- you seem to operate on a FIFO basis making “efficient” resourcing a challenge
- a hard-to-please internal client who just asks for more with ever increasing regularity
- lack of rules of the road around reasonable turnaround times -vs- client expectation
- no formal rules / guidance around how the business should engage with the legal team
- no limits on who can engage your team, and what for
- inability to defend criticism over responsiveness / turnaround times
- the business expects unlimited legal support in real time
- the business would like your legal team to run 24/7 – but it doesn’t
- your legal team has no guidelines on what’s expected of them by the business
- a lack of verifiable data to measure in-house lawyer efficiency and performance
Wouldn’t it be great if you could access a turn-key and cost-effective solution that defines the standards and levels of performance the business may expect from the legal department? Good luck finding that on the internet.
