Increasingly I realise just how easy some of us in private practice have it compared to general counsel (GC) and in-house lawyers.
Law firms and their lawyers are inclined to be change resistant. Professional experience has conditioned them to be sensitised to the potential downsides arising from a course of action in preference to embracing the likely upsides.
