Main areas of practice: Deloitte Legal organizes its market offerings around three key areas:

Legal Management Consulting: Deloitte’s Legal Management Consulting (LMC) services were developed in collaboration with experts from across Deloitte practice areas such as mainstream management consultancy, risk advisory, tax management consulting, and, of course, legal. The services are configured to identify opportunities to help the General Counsel and the legal department as a whole achieve their desired state: Deloitte practitioners from numerous disciplines collaborate on a long-term roadmap to realize the client’s vision. They benchmark that roadmap with achievable goals, and work with the client from inception to completion.

Deloitte Legal’s LMC services includes assessing and developing legal operating models, evaluating and reconfiguring internal legal processes, developing frameworks for legal risk management, assisting with sourcing (balancing in-house resources with external third party providers), developing and deploying legal technology architecture, and facilitating tailored labs to develop solutions.

Legal Managed Services: Deloitte’s Legal Managed Services were developed to help legal departments keep up with the demands from their businesses for support on a range of legal issues. The legal professionals employ technology (such as dTrax – Deloitte’s award-winning contract management solution) and proven methodologies to act as an extension of a company’s in-house legal team, driving efficiencies through process improvement, and providing support and guidance to help enable their focus to shift to more strategic issues.
