In the ACC CLO Report, 947 CLOs were surveyed about their biggest challenges, areas of emphasis, and initiatives for their legal departments for 2021 and beyond. 

A major finding in the report was that legal departments are actively investing in their legal operations personnel, with increases in headcount in corporate legal departments year-over-year, and a 39% increase since 2015. Now, 61% of legal departments employ at least one legal operations professional, while 21% employ at least four.

Join this webcast to hear legal operations professionals discuss the key stats that legal operations should take note of, including:

• Why more than one-third of CLOs say their department’s most important strategic initiative involves legal operations 
• How legal operations can bring efficiency to CLO’s biggest areas of interest  
• How you can be aligned with your legal executives on their top issues
