Lighten-Up Consulting
We have completed our run of the Lighten-Up Consulting Package and are no longer accepting new applications. Watch this space for updates!
​
'Lighten-Up!' Consulting is a bespoke one-on-one package of consulting services to help selected small law firms become leaner, integrated and data-driven by helping them successfully adopt redesigned operational processes, supported by well-configured technology tools.
​
The consulting package was developed by the Future Law Innovation Programme in partnership with legal process re-engineering experts KorumLegal, in close consultation with industry stakeholders.
​
As part of the Singapore Academy of Law's Support Package amid COVID-19, FLIP are offering 40 slots for small firms to access our business re-engineering consultancy package. The three-month Lighten Up! programme is designed to make your processes and workflows more efficient and will be provided free of charge to selected firms.
