The 2025 Legal Trends Report for mid-sized law firms confirms that AI adoption, optimized client experience and data driven decisions are the core drivers of firm growth. But how do you implement these ambitious changes without resistance? Join former legal administrator Kate Bell for a practical guide on translating these trends into actionable 2026 goals.

In this session, we’ll explore how to:

• Develop a framework for tracking success metrics that measure the impact and ROI of your 2026 operational changes and investments.
