Law department operations (LDO) professionals play an integral role within the corporate legal department. Because of their wide-ranging data management expertise, they are also now collaborating with other internal groups to add value to important corporate projects.

As recognized in the Blickstein Group’s December 2021 14th Annual Law Department Operations Survey, “the law department operations (LDO) function at many companies is evolving toward assisting law departments to deliver more value to many different areas of their organization,” and “LDO professionals are having substantial interactions on matters that stretch beyond the legal department.” This survey further validates LDO expertise and value within the corporation.
