Project Management for the Legal Profession


Ready to make the switch from reactive to proactive case (or matter) management? Legal project management (LPM) is a best-practices approach for scoping, planning, executing and controlling legal work, given the constraints of time, budget and performance requirements.

This practical and straightforward program provides a variety of methods and tools to assist in delivering high-quality legal services more efficiently and profitably.

Additionally, learn how LPM naturally results in adherence to NC Rules of Professional Conduct, specifically Rules 1.1 through 1.6, 3.2, 5.1, 5.3 and 7.1.

Whether you work on litigation or transactional matters, join us as we explore the three major project management philosophies — predictive, agile and hybrid — and dive into hot topics such as communications planning, avoiding scope creep, case estimating techniques, capturing lessons learned and more.
