Risk management is important for all legal practitioners and law practices and it goes beyond just avoiding legal claims or lowering costs in terms of professional liability insurance premiums.

The implementation of risk management processes reaps significant benefits that include:

  • Improved management and communication;
  • Better legal services to clients;
  • Enhanced competence and thereby improved competitiveness;
  • Lower stress levels for practitioners and staff with improved work efficiencies and protection from risks; and
  • Safeguarding of a practice’s reputation.

The end result of good risk management is a successful law practice. Risk management must therefore become a part of a law practice's strategic vision and culture.

The following e-learning will aid law practices in implementing the following key areas of risk management.

  • AWARENESS: Know what are the core categories of risks for every law practice.
     
  • IDENTIFICATION: Identify areas of potential risk with a risk assessment checklist.
     
  • MANAGEMENT: Manage and control identified risks with policies and processes that mitigate/prevent such risks.
     
  • REVIEW: Monitor and review processes to manage or mitigate the identified risks and track new or emerging risks.
