FOREREACH: to move forward while
heading into the wind
Providing strategic solutions to Lawyers, Law Students & Legal Service Providers to give them a competitive edge and move their practices forward
It is more important than ever for law students to have access to expertise that can give them a competitive advantage. Learning remotely can limit opportunities for students to gain access to resources and to network with prospective employers. ForeReach Consulting offers video meetings customized to each student to position them for success, whether they wish to move forward in public or private practice, or if they are still undecided about their career path.
The way lawyers practice law has forever changed. Many are now reflecting on their careers and are contemplating a shift in their legal practice. For some, this may mean moving from public to private practice or from private practice to in-house, government, sole proprietorship or retirement. ForeReach Consulting provides customized packages to support lawyers with the transition to the next step of their career path in a competitive market.
The legal industry has recently experienced a dramatic shift in the delivery of legal services. Clients are demanding more efficiency and accountability with their legal dollars. By taking a project management approach to Student Programs and Legal Talent Programs, ForeReach Consulting will move legal service providers forward towards the edge of the legal industry evolution.
