In-house legal service is associated with employing a legal advisor “full-time”. An in-house lawyer has many advantages: he knows all aspects of the company’s operations, works within its structure and is available on a daily basis. Unfortunately, this solution also has many disadvantages.
Usually, a full-time lawyer works alone. This raises the problem of ensuring the continuity of legal services during his absence (vacation, illness, business trip). After all, business cannot wait for the return of a legal advisor.
Even the best lawyer will not become a specialist in every area of law. New technologies, changing legal regulations, regulations of other areas of activity – these are just examples of difficulties that every lawyer encounters on his career path. And yet, supporting the activity of an entrepreneur, we must fully follow all changes in the law. After all, the need for legal aid is not constant.
Sometimes there is little work, and finally our client is faced with a serious business project. Providing appropriate support often comes at the expense of the ongoing handling of the company’s affairs.
OPTIMIZATION OF IN-HOUSE LEGAL SERVICE
Legal services in-house provided by the KPDI law firm solves the above-mentioned problems.
The client is assigned a permanent contact person.
The supervisor is usually a KPDI Partner. It ensures efficient exchange of information and management of the entirety of the client’s affairs. The guardian separates and supervises the work of his subordinate lawyers.
On request, we delegate a lawyer to work at the client's premises, within the agreed working time.
A delegated attorney-at-law performs tasks at the client’s premises, on specific days and hours. On the one hand, it ensures direct contact of all staff with our lawyer, on the other – it enables us to better understand your needs and address them.
We provide a replacement for a delegated lawyer
Leave, illness or even a lawyer’s business trip should not disrupt cooperation with the legal department. If necessary, we ensure continuity of advice, including – if necessary – we delegate lawyers to replace.
Tasks requiring specific knowledge are assigned to a specialist in a given branch of law
Lawyers also have their specializations. We created our team with a view to complementing each other. Thanks to this, the entire Law Firm provides support to delegated lawyers in solving specific legal problems.
If necessary, we appoint working teams
In case of complex and large projects, we organize and manage the work of ad hoc work teams. They often also include other advisers (accountants, statutory auditors, appraisers, patent attorneys, etc.). The role of KPDI is to lead to a positive closure of the project.
We optimize costs - the billing model is flexible and adapted to the actual amount of work of the lawyer
The settlement models we have developed allow us to adjust the costs of legal services to the actual demand for our services. As a result, we significantly reduce the costs of legal services, while ensuring the highest level of their quality.
