When should legal get involved? Traditionally, checking with legal was the last step in business projects. But we're now seeing legal teams becoming more and more integrated into the business. And when legal is embedded in the day-to-day running of a business, you can better manage risk and spot opportunities. So how can Legal get involved at an earlier stage of the project?
