Law firms are like snowflakes – no single one has an identical
business model. But there are core elements that are common each
organization.
In interactive
sessions over two days, the PDC Winter Certificate Program 2025 offers PD, or
other law firm, law school, in-house, or vendor professionals, the opportunity
to deepen your understanding of law firm economics and how they align with your
professional goals.
Day one will cover
topics such as revenue generation, cost management, and the financial
intricacies of law firms. Participants will explore compensation models,
partnership structures, and key risk factors that influence the industry.
On day two, you'll
gain valuable insights into economic risk factors as well as ROI for PD
professionals to empower you to make informed strategic decisions.
