The legal profession is a fast paced environment where new ideas are always emerging. For many firms, the goal is to find ways to offer the services clients need without sacrificing the quality of work that is expected. New law is one such idea that can be a powerful tool to help create value for a legal firm. However, it’s important for those considering this type of work to understand how the concept works and how it can be used in their practice.
The term “new law” can be somewhat difficult to define. At its most basic, it refers to a number of different legal services that are conducted in entirely new ways. These services can include things such as working with underserved communities, creating strategies that allow for the provision of legal help in completely unique ways and finding other means of offering the assistance that is so needed by a wide range of clients.
