legal industry research & business insights.

What a difference a year can make. When we conducted this survey in 2019, no-one could have envisaged the COVID-19 pandemic and the financial impacts and challenges that were about to take place. Although this year is different, how firms bounce back and thrive will largely be a function of their financial strength and position pre-COVID-19.

The Associations Matter 2020 COVID-19 Member Impact Survey was conducted on behalf of the Australasian Legal Practice Management Association (ALPMA). The purpose of the survey was to help ALPMA better understand the impact of COVID-19 on the profession and individual legal firms.

“Are you ready for the future?” The 2018 ALPMA & GlobalX Summit research poses this question to Australasian law firms. New technologies, systems and shifts in culture are pushing law firms and the legal industry to quickly adapt. But how agile are our businesses—and how prepared are we for these changes?

ALPMA and The Centre for Legal Innovation at The College of Law (CLI) have joined together to undertake one of the most comprehensive surveys of the emerging professions in legal practice in Australasia.
