Translate policy on litigation reporting into procedures that hold up under day-to-day pressure.
Building Case Reports for Senior Management and Boards
A structured, applied course in litigation reporting — designed to be used the week you return.
Course Overview
A contract governing litigation reporting that nobody administers is a document, not a control. Legal exposure on the legal and contractual practice discipline accumulates through routine decisions taken without advice. The content is relevant to those who own this aspect of legal and contractual practice and to those who are held accountable for its results. The programme takes participants through litigation reporting end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make the legal and contractual practice capability hard in practice. Participants gain a realistic view of what the wider legal and contractual practice agenda costs and what it returns. Buying a tool rarely fixes litigation reporting; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the legal and contractual practice capability that were visible long before the incident. The programme closes with an action plan for the practice within legal and contractual practice that each participant writes for their own organisation.
