Last year’s Legal IT survey, Benchmarking Technology in the Global Economy, carried out by PA Consulting Group in conjunction with Legal IT , revealed a technology ‘value’ gap. Technology departments felt they were providing the firm with the right solutions at the right price, ensuring that the firm managed its business effectively while keeping costs low. Many partners, however, failed to see or understand these technology solutions and the value for money they offered.
At the forthcoming Legal IT Forum at Gleneagles, PA’s John Kay will present the findings from this year’s survey – revealing the legal sector’s views on IT and the value companies perceive from their current IT investments. At Gleneagles there will be opportunity to discuss the implications in depth with delegates. Here PA takes a look at some of the initial findings and gives its view on the challenges that law firms continue to face.
