Launched in 2008, the Annual Law Department Operations Survey is the definitive benchmarking study for legal operations professionals. Each year we capture how legal departments are evolving their operating models, deploying technology, and managing spend.
The survey is designed exclusively for in-house Legal Ops, COOs, and other operations leaders. Participants receive the full report alongside their counterparts and a private benchmark view.
