Business of Law

More and more, the business of law is becoming important. This is because of the changes that have occurred in the legal industry over the last decade. With more and more emphasis on corporate compliance, ethics and governance, the legal industry has integrated into company business operations.

Today, the private practice sector is experiencing global consolidation. This leads to business of law and law firms with non practicing managing partners as well as general counsels and chief marketing officers. No longer is the legal sector simply a collection of private practice firms.

As the legal sector embraces the business of law, law firms are looking for non practicing attorneys to run the business aspect. This opens many more positions in the legal sector than there have historically been.

There are many new industry specific markets, but there are also positions that can benefit from a legal background. These positions can vary greatly. Some of the less specific positions can include chief legal officers, chief compliance officers, regulatory or government affairs executives and human resource executives among others. However, if you have the experience and desire for it, there are also the industry specific positions. These can also greatly vary, and will be different from industry to industry.
