In-house general counsel handle a delicate balancing act in their challenging roles. Leveraging outside counsel relationships is an important contributor to their success. In-house counsel crave just the right mix of skills and service that makes their lives a little easier. How can we help? Here are a few things our panel will talk about:

  • Why do certain attorneys get hired?
  • How do firms and attorneys stand out among the competition to stay top of mind when new work is being handed out?
  • What causes in-house counsel to fire outside attorneys?
  • What marketing efforts matter, and which are simply noise?
  • Do surveys and rankings really impress in-house counsel?
  • What should outside counsel do to preserve precious relationships with in-house counsel, knowing that colleagues are competing to get a foot in the door?
  • How can marketing professionals help to maintain and strengthen in-house counsel relationships?

Join our panel for a quick-fire, direct conversation with in-house counsel as they share their first-hand experience with what gets attorneys hired, or fired.
