As the legal industry continues to disaggregate and is increasingly flooded with technology, clients and in-house counsel report that they want a more personalized legal relationship. As hyperpersonalization permeates the legal industry, clients will continue to push for more tailored service.

Or maybe they should focus on security and risk awareness? What about staffing efficiencies and technology innovation? And what is a realistic investment in value-adds?
