Legal Workplace Symposium 2010 New York

The Legal Workplace Symposium is a high calibre event for legal professionals. The event will debate the changing nature of legal work through adoption of new technologies and work practices. As bidding for new business becomes even tougher and with demand for greater transparency with clients, change is inevitable for the way legal offices are used. Expert panellists will discuss the key issues facing the legal workplace in terms of utilising space and implementing the right technologies that facilitate a more cost effective way of working. They will share experiences of how their organisations have developed more flexible and collaborative spaces.

Join over 60 senior professionals from real estate, facilities, technology and executive management from the USA’s top legal firms.

Workplace Case Studies:

Eversheds

The first major London law firm to adopt an alternative workstyle to either the cellular or open plan office. Their ‘Studio’ space approach provides a hybrid environment, where lawyers can collaborate and at the same time affords a degree of privacy and quiet space.

Reynolds Porter Chamberlain

The conversion of cellular offices into an Open Space Office required fundamental changes in the working methods of roughly 500 employees. Vitra actively assisted the law firm in this process, choosing products that suit operational procedures while satisfying the preferences and needs of employees.

Speakers include:

Bill Bouchey, Design Director of M Moser

Allan Lee, Director, Strategic Planning, M Moser

Cornelius Medvei, Partner, Eversheds LLP

Philip Ross, CEO, Cordless Group

Nigel Scott-Williams, New York Director, Vitra
