What in-house need to know

  • Event date: 24 February 2027 12:00 PM

  • Duration: 1 hour
  • Provided by: The Centre for Legal Leadership and RPC

Legal Spotlight has been designed specially for in-house counsel and business leaders who play a central role in shaping and advising executive decision-making.

Disputes can be costly and time consuming, tying up both human and financial resources - and they remain one of the biggest calls on legal budgets: Thomson Reuters Market Insights reports that disputes account for 23% of legal spend globally in H1 2026.

Join us for a practical webinar, focused on steps in-house teams can take to minimise cost and reputational impact, including how to be “dispute ready” through better early-stage decisions and process management.
