I recently sat down with Lucy Bassli, former Microsoft assistant general counsel, legal operations and contracting and founder of InnoLaw Group, PLLC, to talk with her about her upcoming series for Corporate Counsel Advance on steps legal teams can take to reduce the challenges of increasing contracting volumes and limited capacity to scale.
