AFAs Aren’t “Alternative” Anymore: What In-House Counsel Need to Know about leveraging AFAs

Alternative fee arrangements or pricing models not purely based on hourly billing comprise 20% of the legal market right now and that number is quickly growing.

Join us on Wednesday, February 22 at 12pm ET / 9am PT for the next edition of our IHC Fundamentals Series, as David Falstein, PERSUIT’s Vice President of Product, will share how AFAs are changing how in-house counsel source their firms and how to best leverage them for success.

Topics to be discussed include:

• The advantages of AFAs—even for complex, high-cost matters
• The financial savings generated by AFAs
• How AFAs impact legal outcomes and firm relationships.
• AFAs types (including pros & cons of each) and which ones are best for specific matters and practice areas
• How competitive sourcing processes can provide confidence in AFA pricing proposed by firms
