Are law firms REALLY innovating? It’s a question that is being asked more often now, sometimes with hope, other times with scepticism, but always with a follow up that resembles show and tell!

Herbert Smith Freehills (HSF) is a law firm that can SHOW and TELL – it’s a fabulous innovation story and journey. HSF has a lot going on locally, nationally, and globally. Innovation for them is about changing mindsets, changing culture, and creating the places and spaces where the workforce of the future can thrive – it’s a workforce predicated on the seamless integration of digital and human resources and so, so much more…

In this podcast, we chatted with Danielle Emerson, Innovation Lead at HSF and her colleague, Catherine Adamson, Legal Ops Lead about all of this AND a couple of their fabulous new initiatives too!

Topics covered included:

Whether or not there is a compelling argument for law firms to do things differently
What’s driving the legal ops movement in law firms
The ins and outs of HSF’s new Clerkship Innovation Lab
The ins and outs of HSF’s membership of a law firm consortium that has developed a new program to train legal ops graduates
What’s next on the legal change/transformation agenda

Thanks sooo much Danielle and Catherine – you are doing amazing work that is moving the legal transformation needle forward – woohoo!
