DLA Sees Clientzone Portal As Key to Vision THE LEADER IN LEGAL TECHNOLOGY NEWS Issue 134 DLA sees ClientZone portal as key to vision At its annual press conference last week, the UK law firm DLA (previously Dibb Lupton Alsop) announced a 15% increase in gross fee income to £203 for the year ending 20 April 2002 and a 16% increase in profits per equity. Managing partner Nigel Knowles also outlined the firm’s ‘vision’ - or three year strategic plan - for the period 2002-to-2005 which is to make DLA “a top 5 European full service firm with a significant presence in Asia”. This theme was expanded on by DLA’s IT director Daniel Pollick. According to Pollick, along with building the framework to support closer integration between DLA and members of its D&P international association of law firms, one of his priorities was “to use the power of the internet to deliver better solutions Scottish Law Society for our clients through the integration of online with offline in web domain dispute services.” Pollick was however keen to stress this was not the usual law firm dotcom hype as he was only too well aware of The Law Society of Scotland has become what does not work on the internet, highlighting both embroiled in a dispute over its LawScot standalone online legal services and first generation virtual domain with a Scottish internet company dealrooms as non-runners. that also claims the name.

In all there was a total of 91 lateral partner moves announced in this round up – 22% down on the same period last year when the figures were artificially buoyed by the collapse of King & Wood Mallesons’ European verein.

  • The Charter – a Short History
    The Charter – a short history The Mindful Business Charter was born out of discussions between the in house legal team at Barclays and two of their panel law firms, Pinsent Masons and Addleshaw Goddard, along the following lines: The people working in their businesses are highly driven professionals; We do pressured, often complex, work which requires high levels of cognitive functioning; We thrive on that hard work and pressure; In amongst that pressure and hard work there is stress, some of which is unnecessary; When we are stressed we work less productively, and it is not good for our health; and If we could remove that unnecessary stress, we would enable people to work more effectively and efficiently, as well as be happier and healthier. They also recognised that the pressure and stress come from multiple sources, often because of unspoken expectations of what the other requires or demands. Too often lawyers will respond to requests for work from a client with an assumption that the client requires the work as quickly as possible, whatever the demands that may make on the individuals involved, and whatever the impact upon their wellbeing, their families and much else besides. The bigger and more important the client, the greater the risk of that happening. The development of IT has contributed to this. As our connectivity has increased, there has been an inexorable drift towards an assumption that simply because we can be contactable and on demand and working 24/7, wherever we may be, that we should be. No-one stopped to think about this, to challenge it, to ask if it was what we wanted, or what we should do, or needed to do or if it was a good idea, we just went with the drift, perhaps fearful of speaking out, perhaps fearful that if we took a stand, the client would find another law firm down the road who was prepared to do whatever was required.
