2021 State of Corporate Law Departments Report

Law departments, like the businesses they support, had a tough and challenging 2020. The pandemic caused major changes to in-house departments, as they shifted quickly under external and internal pressures. The four main effects of the pandemic on corporate law departments were:

• Increased workload
• Shifting demands for external support

• Safeguarding the business becoming a top priority
