Connecticut (CT) General Practice CLE Course Catalog

Technology has driven transformation for many areas of the legal profession aiding with tools covering contract management and e-discovery to cloud based systems and big data and analytics. Yet, dispute resolution has yet to feel the full impact of this transformation. What stage are we currently facing? Where will this take us in the next five years?

In this panel, we hear from women who have grappled with these questions every day as they share how they have adapted to meet these challenges in 2020 in a variety of areas of legal department operations.

In this session, experts will discuss how to effectively and confidentially harness and unleash the power of data.

The manufacturing, construction, and industrial industries have been put somewhat on hold during the pandemic. As we go through these times of uncertainty and move past the pandemic, what lessons can be learned from these industries and their GCs in response to this crisis.

It is inevitable that we must face change at some point. At times, we can predict the changes ahead, but it is not always possible to see what lies just beyond the horizon. Embedding agility and resilience within your legal operations team and wider legal department can be thus crucial to responding to these unforeseen challenges with a well-orchestrated plan. Building strong relationships with external partners, including law firms, ALSPs and LPOs, can be further important to deliver a well-executed plan that effectively navigates unforeseen change on a global scale.

This seminar provides an overview of the extent of the problem, plus new approaches to collecting and analyzing this data to make the process more manageable.

Join this seminar for the latest trends in discovery in international litigation and depositions, plus hear from lawyers with experience across a multitude of jurisdictions about how they overcome challenges in obtaining discovery around the world. 

Today, organizations have more data at their disposal than ever before. Law departments, law firms and law companies are all sitting on a treasure trove of data that can be used to better assess both the legal problems clients have and the way legal services are provided and priced. Data scientists and legal operations specialists are being hired inside all of these organizations, but there is still a disconnect between what the client is hoping to see from the data and what they are currently getting out of it.

Adopting data analytics tools is a step in the right direction, however, there are still challenges that arise with providing clients with the specific information they want to see.
