SUMMARY:Strength in numbers: can law firm alliances navigate ethics rules
  and compete with global brands?
DESCRIPTION:Global clients want seamless\, cross-border legal services\, 
 but can independent law firms deliver them through international allianc
 es\, or do ethics stand in the way? This session tackles the regulatory 
 and competitive challenges facing law firm networks: 1) How do different
  jurisdictions' ethics rules enable or restrict alliance structures? 2) 
 Can independent firms truly operate as one-stop shops while managing con
 flicts\, confidentiality and coordination across borders? 3) Can these a
 lliances realistically compete with the brand power and integration of g
 lobal law firms? Join us for a practical exploration of whether the alli
 ance model can level the playing field in today's competitive legal mark
 etplace.
