Program Information:
Law firm mergers and expansions are happening faster and more frequently than ever. From practice group acquisitions to opening new offices to large-scale mergers, law firm marketers are increasingly faced with promoting and integrating new additions into the fold. The issues are myriad – cross-practice introduction, client analysis, continued engagement after “the honeymoon.”
Hear from both the recruiting and marketing sides at two different firms as they share lessons learned and collaboration success stories from their experiences. And learn how firms across the country are approaching lateral integration from a consultant working with firms nationally.
