We are a team of experienced lawyers and specialist management consultants.
We have all worked in law firms, as in-house counsel or in the government sector, some of us in very senior roles. As a result, we understand the legal profession and what clients are looking for from their legal service providers.
We established Allygroup because we want to make a difference. We believe that the traditional model for providing legal advice often fails to deliver value for money, and that there is a better way to practise law and deliver legal services.
How we can help you
We provide business, government agencies and law firms with:
We are lawyers: we understand the legal services industry.
We are Australia’s most experienced and innovative legal services management consulting firm and have worked with some of the country’s leading companies and government agencies.
We combine extensive experience with new ideas.
Our legal project management methodology is unique. We not only understand the importance of using the right processes to reduce costs but also include a strategic component that helps lawyers pull back and see the big picture. When a lawyer uses an outcome-based approach to analyse their client’s objectives, legal project management is a particularly powerful tool. When this is combined with using the practical processes that enable lawyers to manage matters or transactions more efficiently, it ensures:
Clients are only paying for necessary work, when it needs to be done, by the right level of resourcing
Cost control and savings (in excess of 25% on all projects)
Clarity around project budgets, project direction and outcomes sought
Early identification and management of risks
Efficiency around resources, processes and tools
Engagement of all relevant stakeholders and confidence that legal projects will be completed on time, on budget.
Finally, our approach ensures continuous business improvement through lessons learned.
How we work with you to identify the best possible people or management solution for your situation
When working with our clients, we use a three-step process:
Step 1. We listen to your issues or needs, which may range from resourcing to legal project management or other legal procurement challenges. No one knows your situation as well as you do, and we know that a plain vanilla solution is not going to achieve the high-quality outcomes you are seeking.
Step 2. Once we understand the exact nature of your situation, we work with you to devise a solution that is tailored specifically to the needs of your business, organisation or firm. If necessary, we continue to modify or tweak the proposed solution until you are satisfied with it.
Step 3. We help you to implement the solution. In addition, we can also continue to monitor your needs and requirements and help you improve the way you manage your projects on an ongoing basis.
