Working on Legal Week Law, our new online library of briefings and reports, has given me a chance to take a much closer look at the kind of material being published by law firms. The quality varies enormously, though is generally higher than a neutral observer might expect. One of the most interesting reports I have yet seen is Nabarro’s From In-House Lawyer to Business Counsel.
It caught my eye not so much because of the area it covers – charting the rising influence of in-house lawyers has become pretty well-trodden ground – but because it brings a welcome dose of reality to a subject too often viewed through rose-tinted glasses.
