Insights from DiliTrust Survey on Law Department Efficiencies
Organizations operating legal departments consistently seek ways to minimize costs and enhance operational efficiency. Despite these ongoing efforts, the question remains: Have they successfully reduced waste, and how much inefficiency persists?
In late 2024, DiliTrust collaborated with Above the Law to conduct a comprehensive survey involving over 120 law department professionals. The aim was to gain a deeper understanding of how these employees allocate their time and identify areas ripe for improvement.
Key Findings from the Survey
The results of the survey reveal critical insights regarding time management and workplace satisfaction in corporate law departments. The report highlights several key areas:
Identifying Wasted Time: The report pinpoints specific activities within legal departments that are deemed unproductive.
Perceptions of Efficiency: Legal professionals provided self-assessments on their department’s efficiency, revealing varied perspectives on their progress.
Workday Satisfaction: The survey captures insights into the most and least gratifying aspects of an in-house lawyer’s daily experiences.
