I'm taking a break from this week's newsletter. But there's plenty to still share.

Newsletter Update V5

Hi there,

 

Even cheeky startup founders need a break. 

 

So I’m taking one. 

 

At least from this week’s standard newsletter insights. 

 

I know, I know, what’ll you do without your weekly dose of Jim?! Trust me. You’ll be more than alright. At least that’s what my team would proffer 🤷🏻‍♂️. 

 

Instead — and much more interesting — I’ll share a few highlights of must-not-miss events that we have in the works for you this coming month. 

 

Our latest webinar on outside counsel management launches on April 24th. 

 

We’re teaming up with the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Northeast Chapter to give a highly practical and tactical roadmap to in-house teams of any size or maturity on how to manage a really great outside counsel management program.

 

Our all-star panelists include:

 

⭐ Ashley Woodill, Vice President and Associate GC, Wells Fargo 

⭐ Mike Jones, Legal Operations Manager, Hubspot

⭐ Kathleen Patton, General Counsel, Divert

Craps at CLOC with Jordan (and a lot more!) 🎲🤔

 

Believe it or not, CLOC is right around the corner. 

 

You can connect with us there at a few places:

 

1. We’ll be hosting UBS’s John Burke in our solutions lab breakout on Tuesday, May 7th. 

 

John and his team have crafted an award-winning “smart sourcing” framework for engaging outside counsel that has resulted in significant savings for their team. 

 

This one will be full of practical takeaways and “how-to’s” you won’t want to miss. 

 

2. PERSUIT and our friends at Cimplifi have teamed up to host a Tuesday evening happy hour at the Aria Pool Cabanas. 

 

Yeah, we’re a bunch of legal tech nerds and former lawyers 🤓, but we know how to have a pretty good time. We’d love for you to join us. 

 

We’ve only got a few spots left. Just reply to this email if you'd like to attend, and my team will be in touch. 

 

3. Join us for a walk down our Legal Ops “Walk of Fame” at our conference booth.

 

Just follow the popcorn 🍿.

 

4. And last but not least…

 

Yes, our own beloved VP of Data and Growth, Jordan Weinstein, is rounding out the agenda with an informal meet-up around the craps table. 

 

My sources say this just might very well be our most well-attended event at CLOC this year. 🤔  

 

We’ve still got a few surprises in the works for this year’s CLOC. So stay tuned in the coming weeks!

 

Cheers,

Jim

 

P.S. It’s no surprise that I think the billable hour makes no sense. But ICYMI, here’s one more insane reason to add to the list, explained expertly by our Senior Manager of Legal Advisory, Maui Gevero.

Outtakes From Outside Counsel Management: Go Behind the Scenes With UBS's John Burke

CLOC Solutions Lab 2024

Join us for a never-before-shared behind-the-scenes look at how a real legal operations team sources outside counsel. In this exclusive one-time-only showing, UBS’s Global Head of Outside Counsel Management, John Burke, joins PERSUIT’s legal pricing experts to reveal:

  • What firms are really pitching.
  • The behaviors, strategies, and the actual data behind the sourcing decision for a real litigation matter.
  • What happens after the decision is made? What gets revealed to the firms who win and those who don’t, and how do they respond?
  • What UBS’s “Smart Sourcing” with PERSUIT looks like at scale.
  • The conversations with firms one year into PERSUIT.
  • What in-house lawyers really think about competitively sourcing OCM — before and after their first matter. What does it take for legal ops to win them over to OCM and does it really hurt firm relationships?

Come for the popcorn, stay for the Q&A.
