A law firm retreat can serve as a practical management tool to accomplish many purposes. A crisis situation often dictates the need for a retreat. Or, if a firm’s net profits are down, the objectives of the retreat might be to examine why this is happening and what to do about it.

Better managed firms utilize retreats to review trends and developments in major practice areas and discuss what should be done to take advantage of potential growth areas, or to replace work that has been lost. A retreat may also be used to improve communication and provide the lawyers — partners only or partners and associates — with an opportunity to develop better and more personal relationships with each other.
