All firms should consider having a knowledge management (KM) function, whether your firm has a full library with a dedicated array of research staff or just one excited individual looking to take on the challenge. KM offers an extremely flexible approach that any firm can use to reap the benefits of capturing, organizing and sharing the knowledge that its attorneys and other employees create.
