Partnerships play a key role in today's legal marketplace. Typically, one supplier partners with a law firm and/or corporate legal department to provide products and services as an extension of the legal team. However, as the legal industry continues to evolve, focused service offerings are expanding through startups, and new technology advancements are driving creative and unique business approaches to address client needs. With the increasing depth and breadth of services, it becomes more difficult for a single supplier to provide everything under one roof.
