legal matters

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#WoltersKluwer–Managing legal costs has been a key priority for many organizations during the pandemic, including so-called megamatter spend – legal matters that are poised to generate more than $1 million USD in lifetime spend. Megamatters at some legal departments may double during the next six years and so navigating the complexities of spend management will be vital, according to Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions’ recently launched podcast series Legal Leaders Exchange.

In this episode Nathan Cemenska, ELM Solutions’ Director of Legal Operations and Industry Insights, and Ron Denton, Legal Business Manager at multinational energy company Phillips 66, discuss how to effectively handle megamatters without damaging budgets or reputations. Topics include:

  • How to best communicate with senior leadership about the cost of megamatters
  • What factors drive the expenses behind megamatters
  • The reason that trying to budget for megamatters is often challenging
  • Overlooked methods for reducing the cost of megamatters
  • Why having a regular flow of megamatters can be advantageous to a legal department
