Technology & Process
We continually leverage market-leading technology on our transactions, and where none exists, we can develop our own proprietary products. We design processes that enable us to maximize operational efficiency on transactions as well as in the way we run our business.
We trial and run proofs of concept regularly to ensure our lawyers have the best solutions available to them. This provides us with a comprehensive workbench of both internal and external facing tools to ensure our lawyers are working as efficiently as possible for our clients.
Partnership & Collaboration
To find real and workable solutions to new and “disruptive” challenges, a partnership of shared ambition, success and risk across all legal verticals – in-house, academia, regulators and private practice – is key.
We’ve been working across the global innovation community to develop partnerships and collaborations and to share learning and experience.
People & Culture
Our people are alive to the changes and challenges around them and are a key part of the solutions.
We strive to empower them to make change and provide them the tools, skills and environment to effect that change.
We have a suite of resources to help our people deliver innovative ideas.
The Inside Sherpa platform offers free online internships where students can interact with virtual clients and colleagues in a way that replicates the day-to-day work of Linklaters.
The Ideas Pathway, the ideation technology platform, allows the Firm to crowdsource ideas from employees across the globe.
We connect our thriving community of market-leading contract lawyers with high-profile assignments at Linklaters and its clients, providing legal teams with expert support when they need it most.
The Hillary Rodham Clinton School of Law at Swansea University launched its LegalTech Summer School in August. Linklaters provided input on the design of this course to help law firms and in-house counsel learn about applying technology.
