About this Event
PRICING / AI / INNOVATION / GOVERNANCE
The US legal market enters 2026 with headline strength, but with structural pressures building underneath the numbers.
Two things are happening at once:
- The traditional law firm model is still producing strong results (in many markets and segments) via demand + rates, but…
- The underlying assumptions that produced those results are destabilizing, because clients now expect technology-driven efficiency, spend predictability, and billing transparency, and AI changes both the cost structure and the value story.
Inside Legal Economicsis a peer-to-peer forum for COOs, CFOs, pricing leaders, innovation officers, and financial strategists who are redefining how law firmsprice, deliver, govern, and measurevalue in an AI-shaped market.
Join your peers and we focus on the systems that actually determine profitability, not just rates, but the full chain from pricing decisions to realization, collections, and operational execution.
In 2026 we’ll focus on:
- Market Outlook & Competitive Dynamics:Where the growth has been real, and where the vulnerabilities are emerging
- Profitability Engineering:From rate strategy to realization and collected revenue to managing the full “economic engine”
- Pricing Innovation:AFAs, portfolio models, governance, and the commercial playbooks that withstand client scrutiny
- Data & Operational Intelligence:Matter-level visibility, forecasting, and decision support that finance and practice leaders can trust
- GenAI Economics:Moving from experimentation to measurable impact, and aligning the value story with clients
- Operating Model Redesign:Staffing, leverage, and delivery transformation as economics, not “innovation theatre”
- Cash, Billing Discipline & Client Transparency:Reducing friction in billing rules, collections, and working capital
- Future Outlook:The pricing structures and economic models most likely to win in 2026 and beyond
