Conduit Law has some 12 lawyers on its staff and about twice that number of clients. It specialises in recurring legal issues which can be commoditised and also in embedding its lawyers as part-time in-house lawyers with clients. Founder and president Peter Carayiannis said: ‘Sometimes I like to say it’s like we put a lawyer through a wind tunnel. And whatever falls off in the wind tunnel, we’ve determined is just not necessary.’
Remaking legal business
The Toronto Globe and Mail comments that the firm is ‘one of a handful of new law firms that some soothsayers say could remake the legal business, where clients are increasingly eager to contain spiralling costs’. Source: The Globe and Mail
