American LegalNet to Host Law Firm CIO Risk Management Forums

Feb. 18, 2010 - PRLog -- Los Angeles – Los Angeles-based American LegalNet, the premier provider of ‘Desktop to Courthouse’ workflow technologies that reduce risk and minimize cost, today announced they will be offering exclusive Law Firm CIO Risk Management Forums throughout 2010.  

The events will be luncheon-style and the first will take place on Tuesday, February 23, 2010 from 12:00-1:30 p.m. at the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago.

Invitees to these CIO forums will receive exclusive invitations from a third-party CIO Advisory Group member who is working with American LegalNet. The Chicago event will be comprised of a law firm risk management panel that will include the following experts:

•   William J. Campbell, Jr. - Partner & General Counsel - DLA Piper
•   Edward J O’Connell - Chief Financial Officer - Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP
•   Maryanne Swaim, CPCU, ARM – President - Lloyd's Illinois
•   Adam Hansen - Director of Information Security - Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal LLP

“DLA Piper relies on automation across many areas within the firm. Automation is not an option but a necessity for large law firms that handle a large volume of matters,” stated Bill Campbell, panelist and Partner & General Counsel, DLA Piper.

“CFOs need to be involved in purchase decisions for risk management tools within the firm, since often it’s financial controls that lead to identifying the exceptions during new matter intake,” stated Ed O’Connell, panelist and Chief Financial Officer, Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP.

“We are pleased to be hosting such important events,” stated Erez Bustan, CEO of American LegalNet. “We are honored with the industry thought leaders who have agreed to participate and look forward to the information sharing, relationships and partnerships that will form as a result.”

Future Law Firm CIO Risk Management Forums will be held throughout the year and will span the United States.
