ABOUT


    The Buying Legal® Council is The Professional and Educational Institute for Buying Legal Services & Legal Technology. We support professionals tasked with sourcing legal services and managing supplier relationships. Founded in 2013, today it counts hundreds of Members and Friends around the world from a wide range of industries: pharmaceuticals, banking and insurance, technology, media, retailers, consumer goods, electronics, sportswear to public and governmental entities.

      Our members work on the client side, hold procurement, operations or other in-house positions at their organizations. Members at every stage in their career benefit from participating in the Buying Legal® Council.

      We support our Members through continued education and onboarding, research, advocacy, and networking.

      Joining the Buying Legal® Council enhances your professional training, gives you access to practical resources, and connects you with your peers. As Members, Legal Procurement professionals will add more value to their organization and improve their performance by learning from others and their best practices, and avoid reinventing the wheel.

        We also seek a professional and constructive dialogue with sellers of legal services and legal technology. Sellers can join the Buying Legal® Council as Friends. Our Friends enjoy many of the same benefits as our Members.
