Setting up a law firm panel is not yet victory -- getting it right means avoiding the common mistakes that lead to complacency. Too often panels result in some firms getting too much work, and others too little. at.law.com/sVq8Jh?cmp=sha… via @AmericanLawyer

Major new finding in @AmericanLawyer that should materially change client perception of law firms. (Despite the title, not all pedigreed firms lag - there were exceptions.) Thanks to the 28 GCs leading this, and all AdvanceLaw GCs and in-house counsel. law.com/americanlawyer…
