Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

Some of the many legal engagements and arrangements on which in-house counsel advise each year will be business-critical and require careful advice based on detailed, time-intensive consideration. It is not practical, however, for an organisation to devote the same level of legal resource to every part of the business, meaning that some parts of the organisation get less legal attention.

This webinar, hosted by experts from Gilbert + Tobin’s Disputes + Investigations team, will explore how in-house counsel prioritise and allocate resources; and what might be done about potential latent risk areas. Our panelists will discuss:

  • resource allocation and value of transaction as a measure of legal resource required;
  • identifying higher risk business areas, including those where the legal team has little visibility;
  • stakeholder communication around risk; and 
  • relevant case studies.
