Reaching New Heights Midsize Firms Climb into BigLaw's Territory

Two MPF Advisory members – Mitchell Roth of Much Shelist and Ray Werner of Arnstein Lehr – are featured in this article appearing in the March 2014 issue of Chicago Lawyer. The article discusses a dramatic shift in the number and importance of legal work that traditionally went to BigLaw that is now finding its way to smaller and midsize firms. The reason? Not only a significantly lower rate structure, but also more flexibility and improved service. The article mentions a recent LexisNexis survey analyzing the legal spend of corporate America and we’ll feature the survey in a future MPF Weekly Update.
