RALEIGH, N.C., May 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- LexisNexis® CounselLink®, a leading cloud-based enterprise legal management solution for corporate legal departments, today announced the launch of a comprehensive set of new work management tools that allow legal teams to go beyond just managing matters and take a more holistic approach to managing their work. This approach is critical for GCs who need to understand the full scope of work handled by their legal department to provide strategic advice, metrics and information to their business stakeholders. With all information accessible in a single interface, the new work management features help legal departments better manage internal work product and matters, relations with outside counsel and total legal spend, and ultimately drive better decisions. LexisNexis will be demonstrating CounselLink's new capabilities May 14-16 at CLOC 2019 Vegas Institute.
CounselLink's new work management features enable legal departments to collect, organize, track, audit and report on all the work performed within the department. Departments can:
"So much information flows in and out of the legal department without being formally promoted to a 'legal matter,' including requests for advice, legal inquiries and other types of submissions," said Aaron Pierce, general manager of CounselLink. "Having the right tools to understand and manage all the work your legal department is asked to perform is just as important as tracking every line item of every invoice. With complete visibility into all work and invoices, CounselLink helps legal departments control costs, maximize productivity and make better decisions – elevating their role as an indispensable business partner."
CounselLink integrates tools for work management, financial management and vendor management in a single system that provides visibility and access to all work and data. Together, these components provide holistic support to law departments in achieving their goals of improving efficiency and effectiveness, obtaining a higher level of cost predictability and oversight, and ensuring they become an indispensable business partner.
"The market is at a transformative moment. Our customers – and industry research – tells us workloads have increased and are more complex. They are under significant pressure to improve efficiencies, establish standardized work processes, measure performance and be accountable to the business," Pierce added. "CounselLink makes it easier for GCs and their staff to do their work, to know what's happening inside and outside the department, and to demonstrate the value they provide to stakeholders in the business."
