Legal project managers are delivery specialists - they sit at the cross-roads between the client, the legal team, and other support functions (such as marketing, finance and pricing, L&D and IT). Their role is to help ensure that legal services are delivered in a way which meets (and preferably exceeds!) the client's cost, time and quality expectations - all the while enabling a law firm's/legal department’s commercial objectives, driving technology-enabled transformation, and maintaining the mental well-being of its lawyers. Legal project managers have a lot on their plate - it's a good thing that they're organised!
