Managing the Modern Law Firm: New Challenges, New Perspectives

Editat de Laura Empson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 ian 2007
The last ten years have been a period of extraordinary change for law firms. The rapid growth of corporate law firms and the emergence of global mega-firms such as Clifford Chance, Linklaters, and Freshfields, have strained the traditional partnership model of management. Some managers of law firms are appalled at the creeping 'corporatism' that they fear may result. However a growing number believe that it is time to move on and adopt more contemporary forms of structure and management.Successfully meeting the challenges of this new business environment is vital for the continuing prosperity of law firms. Featuring contributions from both management researchers and legal practitioners, Managing the Modern Law Firm presents the latest insights from Management Studies in an approachable, practical, and relevant manner for lawyers and other professionals involved directly and indirectly with the management of law firms.

Recenzii

This book, edited by Laura Empson, provides a rich blend of historical perspective, scholarly analysis, and practical insight by an impressive group of professionals and academicians. It gives firm leaders plenty to think about.
...a valuable collection of essays...check out the book
The publication of Managing the Modern Law Firm marks something of a seminal moment in the development of management theory in this market. For the first time... academic and professional heavyweights have faced up to the scale and unique complexity of law firm management.
It looks a real winner.
While most lawyers admire sound organisation, they regard the discipline of management with considerable mistrust. These management sceptics would do better to immerse themselves in a different book Managing the Modern Law Firm, edited by Laura Empson... This is a rich and stimulating blend of practical insight, scholarly analysis, historical narrative, and solid empirical research, written by an impressive array of leading experts.
