The Challenge: Three “debate teams” present scenarios to their hypothetical General Counsel, who has asked for options to reduce expenses related to outside counsel. Cost-savings options are due to the GC and there are differing opinions about the best way forward. Each team, captained by experts from Consilio and Buying Legal Council, will present a business case for one of these scenarios:
- Team 1: Bring more work in-house
- Team 2: Leverage Alternative Legal Service Providers more
- Team 3: Renegotiate terms with existing outside counsel
