Corporate legal leaders strive to accelerate business outcomes through operational excellence and exceptional service delivery. Yet new research reveals that inefficient, fragmented workflows and historic underinvestment in legal technology and processes are creating legal friction—a hidden burden that reduces productivity, inflates costs, and quietly erodes business performance.

In today’s rapidly shifting economic and political landscape, the role of in-house legal teams has never been more pivotal. When optimized, legal can become a powerful business enabler—driving revenue, reducing risk, and strengthening competitive advantage. But new findings from the International Data Corporation (IDC), sponsored by LawVu, show that legal friction is holding many legal departments back from fulfilling that potential.
