Legal Ops 101: Vendor Assessment

Law firms and alternative legal service providers serve as essential partners to corporate legal teams. However, it’s important to carefully evaluate these partnerships at regular intervals—as you would with any business relationship.

This course explains the value of using a vendor assessment framework; introduces the “assessment triangle” of results, billing, and vendor diversity; and provides recommendations for the frequency and format of assessments.
