Speakers: Hushmand Jonathan Cott, Covington & Burling; James Foley, Pricing and Budget Director, Hunton & Williams; and, Peter Lane Secor, Pepper Hamilton LLP
In this session, panelists will explore concepts and methods that produce win-win engagements. Win-win does not end with the fee arrangement; it is not a "set it and forget it" situation.
