Description

This session will continue our discussion on the law office of the future. The session is highly relevant for large and small law firms alike and focusses on the various drivers for change in the “shape” of our offices, including technology, the demands of our young lawyers and the ever-increasing cost of real estate. The discussions will include many examples of different designs for offices that will stimulate takeaway ideas for all attendees. The panellists will include a wide selection of representatives from law firms who are going through the process of office transformation. In addition, a panel of real estate experts will provide you with practical advice on the 5 big things any law firm should focus on when entering into a lease for new premises.
