‘Fundamental shift’ is transforming the delivery of legal services, new report concludes<\/strong><\/a> — from abajournal.com by Debra Cassens Weiss<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cRevolutionary changes are afoot\u201d in the market for legal services, according to a new report.<\/p>\n

Clients are actively managing their relationships with outside counsel, nonlaw competitors are gaining ground, and law firms are responding to market changes in innovative ways, the report says.<\/p>\n

The\u00a02020 Report on the State of the Legal Market<\/em>\u00a0was released Monday by Georgetown Law\u2019s Center on Ethics and the Legal Profession and Thomson Reuters Legal Executive Institute. It is available for download\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, taking that view is seeing only one side of the story. Over this same period, there has been mounting evidence that the underlying model itself is changing, that clients, non-law firm competitors, and even many law firms are now operating with very different assumptions about the role law firm services should play in the legal ecosystem and how such services should be delivered. In the past year or so, this evidence has grown to the point that it seems apparent that a fundamental shift is now well underway.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
