What Lies Ahead for the Legal Industry in 2025?
The legal industry is entering a new phase of transformation, shaped by rapid technological advancements, evolving workplace expectations, and a fiercely competitive talent market. MD Communications’ latest white paper, What Lies Ahead 2025, brings together insights from industry leaders on these key developments and Siobhán Lewington, a partner in our London office, was among those featured.
In the report, Siobhán highlights one of the most pressing challenges facing law firms today:
“The legal sector in 2025 will continue to be defined by intense competition for talent as US firms drive up compensation and reshape recruitment norms. A client-led value proposition will be at the heart of the most successful hiring by law firms.”
With firms re-evaluating hiring strategies, workplace culture, and long-term business models, the white paper explores a range of crucial topics, including:
The role of AI in legal business development.
Hybrid working and firm culture.
