If all you want from your lawyer is technical excellence, then you are spoilt for choice. However, clients want and expect more than that. Today, a ‘good’ lawyer is defined by their broader business knowledge and empathy for their client, resulting in pragmatic advice and counsel grounded in commercial reality. And more.
