INSIDE
Where are the UK's law firms investing in business change, and which factors are most challenging their momentum or chances of strategic success, at the top of 2025?
ISSUES IN BRIEF
The Briefing Frontiers research is our flagship annual benchmarking of how top UK law firms’ investment and transformation plans, strategic priorities and choices are evolving — with insight surrounding approaches to innovation, barriers to business change, the roles of cloud and data strategy, movement on adoption of generative artificial intelligence, and considerations connected to making decisions about the future of office space.
- How are firms responding to growing demand for innovation?
- Will firms move all core business management systems to the cloud?
- Do firms have a comprehensive, connected data strategy as the foundations of ambitions for process change?
- Where are firms already harnessing generative artificial intelligence, either internally or at the face of client service?
- Do firms continue to consider options for improving efficiency and interactions around office space?
User-friendly, dynamic graphs — with insight into trends by total firm headcount, among other factors — join Briefing editorial team analysis and supporting interviews with C-level business management leaders at a wide range of UK firms, including Anthony Collins, Birketts, Cripps, DAC Beachcroft, Freeths, Gowling WLG, Mills & Reeve, Morton Fraser MacRoberts and Penningtons Manches Cooper.
We also bring valuable perspectives on all the year’s big business management findings from each of our Briefing Frontiers research partners for 2025: Aderant, Board, Elite, LexisNexis InterAction+, LexisNexis Enterprise Solutions Peppermint Technology and NetDocuments.
