The old paradigm that litigation and investigations were simply an uncontrollable cost of doing business is dead and gone. Whether you are at a public company or a privately held one, we are all ultimately answerable to our shareholders/investors.
With the age of corporate legal spend accountability upon us, understanding and stewarding the course for litigation and investigation spend materially affects how we are ultimately graded as a corporate legal department and as its individual members. Under this state of being, how and at what point in time do we make the correct decisions on technology for cost and process effectiveness to ensure return on investment (ROI)?
