"Like having a team of management experts in-house..."
Let's face an unpleasant fact.
The fees that traditional management consulting firms charge for the kind of focused, custom-tailored management consulting services needed to navigate today's fast-changing legal services markets are far too high for most smaller law firms.
This is why Walker Clark LLC offers our fulll range of consulting services in a single, integrated subscription engagement -- and all for a single, quarterly fixed fee.
Is your law firm ready for the new opportunities of 2024 and beyond..
Or will they pass you by?
Our firm's research and observations of legal markets worldwide tell us that we can expect to see a sharp upturn in the demand for top-quality services practice areas such as corporate mergers and acquisitions, international dispute resolution, trade, and intellectual property, as well as in industry sectors such as finance, free zones, logistics, tourism, transport, and telecommunications. In some markets, the demand for service might be greater than the supply of competent service providers, creating new opportunities and new challenges for law firms that want to expand their client base and build sustainable profitability and market position.
Unfortunately, many of these firms -- including some well-established ones -- will be disappointed.

building sustainable performance through quality management
In most legal services organizations, the biggest overlooked obstacle to better performance is not overly cost-sensitive and demanding clients nor highly-paid lawyers and staff, but the lack of effective quality assurance systems in day-to-day operations.
Pioneers in the introduction of quality management in legal services organizations worldwide, Walker Clark LLC marks its 20th anniversary by introducing a new hybrid consulting service to help law firms and in-house counsel make substantial and sustainable improvements in performance (and, for law firms, profitability) through quality management.
Are you managing stress and preventing burnout in your legal services organization?
For many law firms, law departments, and other legal services organizations, the honest answer is not really.
Some law firms even still deny that stress and burnout are management concerns at all. Others deceive themselves into believing that giving their people time off and gym memberships will solve the problem.
looking over the horizon
Traditional strategic planning methods are failing many small and midsize law firms.
Rapidly changing client expectations and fiercely competitive legal markets present a frustrating intellectual challenge for smaller firms that have been successful so far, but now are confronted by an uncertain future and limited resources.
- What's over our horizon? How can we know, with reasonable confidence, what our legal market will be like in the 2030s and beyond?
- What do we need to do now -- not only to remain competitive and profitable today, but also to prepare to respond to the challenges that we will face ten years from now?
Walker Clark offers two services that can help your firm develop and implement cost-effective, fact-based answers to these questions.
