FAR Nonprofit Member Only Breakfast Discussion - April 6, 2022 Stephanie Osborn, Chief Operating Officer at the National League of Cities facilitated the non-profit member breakfast discussion on April 6, 2022 titled “Approaches to Legal Support.” It was an opportunity for association executives to discuss the various needs and activities that require legal counsel. Contracts, intellectual property and human resource issues were among the top issues the participants identified. Several of the participants have in-house legal counsel while the majority outsource the function to one or more legal firms. However, it was clear that a hybrid model was ultimately used by all the participants. Even those with in-house support require outside expertise or need assistance during peak periods. One of the take-a-ways was to engage in a relationship with more than one firm. This provides the opportunity to pivot when needed, taps into specialized expertise, can control costs and may help meet demanding timelines. |  |
