Mr Parnell looks at 42 recent failures of US commercial firms in his new book, 'The Failing Law Firm - Symptoms and Remedies'. He analyses governance and compensation models, firm culture and overall firm strategy and makes it clear how they can jointly and severally lead to firm failure. He examines the trends in failing firms and outlines criteria for predicting others facing the same fate. For further information on The Future of Law Summit, contact Benmartin@futurelex.com.
