Being an in-house lawyer is an attractive option for many lawyers, with many enjoying a high level of job satisfaction. Many lawyers returning from stints overseas look for role in-house. About the Market
Although the effects of the global financial crisis continued to impact the corporate market, the past financial year was generally less troubled for in-house counsel than most of their law firm counterparts. In many cases, in-house teams expanded during 2009–2010, either through the engagement of permanent staff or through the use of contractors and /or secondees as corporations increasingly look to cut their external legal spend. Corporate restructuring and rationalisation led to a continued focus by corporate legal departments to reduce their reliance on external legal providers. Legal departments achieved this by retaining the legal work in-house and expanding the team. Further reading on job satisfaction in the in-house legal market is available in Survey. |
