  • The Legal Profession and the Business of Law
    The Legal Profession and the Business of Law Joanne Bagust Abstract ‘Professional Responsibility and Ethics’ is one of the ‘Priestley 11’ law subjects compulsorily undertaken by Australian law students who aspire to be admitted to practice. Many of the brightest join the major corporate law firms. Nevertheless, there is little theoretical analysis of how those firms are functioning to affect the professional and ethical conduct of their practitioners in the neoliberal state. In this article it is argued that in the mature and highly competitive marketplace for legal services, rather than working as autonomous professionals, corporate lawyers are now finding themselves working more and more as functionaries subservient to the dictates of their corporate clients. Drawing on interviews with Australian major law firm corporate lawyers and Charles Derber’s theory on the proletarianisation of professional workers, it is argued that corporate lawyers are losing key elements of their professional identity in the impetus to maintain the client list and the profit motive. Furthermore, as the balance of power in the corporate legal sector is shifting from law firms to clients, the professional ethics of law firm lawyers are at risk of being compromised as they find themselves being reduced to little more than ‘flush’ factory fodder for the major corporations. I Introduction: the Legal Profession and the Law/Business Nexus For some years now scholars have been writing about the deprofessionalisation of the legal profession, a malaise which, it is claimed, has infected the profession to the extent that ‘the noble profession’1 is ‘losing its soul’.2 Indeed, just what it means, or should mean, to be a legal professional working in corporate legal practice in Australia at the beginning of the third millennium is highly contested.

An Introduction to the Paris Forum on Transnational Practice for the Legal Profession Laurel S. Terry During two historic days in Paris in November of 1998, representatives from around the world joined together to discuss the transnational practice of law. The Paris Forum on Trans- nationalPractice for the Legal Profession is historic because it was the first meeting of multiple bar associations devoted entirely to a discussion of the transnational practice of law. Before the Paris Forum, some bar organizations had set aside time during their meetings to discuss the transnational practice of law and transnationallegal services had been included as a topic in general conferences that were not limited to legal services or legal topics. The Paris Forum, however, was the first meeting of lawyers from around the world devoted solely to this topic.

  • ASIA-PACIFIC Law Firm Review 2013
    GLOBAL CORPORATE SERVICES ASIA-PACIFIC Law Firm Review 2013 LAW FIRM SURVEY Page 5 REVIEW OF KEY ASIA- PACIFIC LEGAL SECTOR MARKETS Page 9 - 15 CONTENTS 3 Executive summary 4 INTRODUCTION 5 LAW FIRM SURVEY 9 BEIJING 10 SHANGHAI 11 HONG KONG 12 KUALA LUMPUR 13 SEOUL 14 SINGAPORE 15 SYDNEY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY International law firms are reacting to market opportunities and changing regulatory environments to expand their presence in the Asia Pacific region. Proximity to clients is the most important consideration for firms when opening offices and determining office location, although prestigious offices are considered important for establishing and maintaining the brand. China, Korea and Singapore are markets that are seeing significant numbers of new law firms arrive due to changes in regulation, economic activity and new trade agreements allowing foreign law firms greater access to the market. Law firms continue to adopt predominantly enclosed office layouts. Although firms are increasingly cost conscious and new ways of working have been considered, this is unlikely to change the approach of mainstream firms dramatically. A number of trail blazers are embracing more progressive workplace requirements that address the growing importance of ‘soft’ assets—flexibility (remote working), technology in enhancing productivity and employee performance. With pressure on profitability and operational costs, law firms are increasingly focused on containing real estate spend whilst reviewing accommodation requirements. ASIA-PACIFIC Law Firm Review INTRODUCTION With Asia Pacific continuing to be the Additionally, as with any international law firm growth engine of the world economy, it is no who may be looking to expatriate lawyers into surprise that many international law firms are a new market, we have included details of enlarging their footprints across the region.
