Changing Legal Landscape: Annual Summit Research

The global legal industry is undergoing irreversible transformation—driven by a range of factors including customer demands for better value, a highly competitive market, rapidly evolving technology and changes to the way we work and live.

Each year, as part of our preparations for the ALPMA Summit and in collaboration with our Principal Summit Partner, ALPMA undertakes research that tracks how law firms are adjusting their strategies and business models to adapt to this changing legal landscape. The research investigates the changes that are impacting Australasian legal firms today, how firms have responded to date, what firms plan to do to accommodate these changes and how prepared the legal industry is to survive and thrive in the “new normal”.
