What sets this book apart is that it translates complex legal principles into practical operating tools that business managers and the lawyers who work with them can use on a day-to-day basis. An indispensable compendium for the legal and compliance team, the executive suite and the boardroom who must work hard to ensure that legal risk management is at the top of the agenda in every organization.-- "Professor Stuart Weinstein, Faculty of Business and Law, Coventry University"<br><br>A must-read for in-house lawyers and new general counsels. I particularly like the simple and practical guides to implement what are quite advanced legal risk management techniques.-- "Simon Nasta, General Counsel, FBN UK"<br><br>Easy to read and dares to delve not just into the practical application of the law but the world of ethics and conduct and the role of lawyers to manage such.

We need more books like this.-- "Ashley Gordon, Head of Legal, EMEA"<br><br>Legal risk management is often still seen as a niche discipline, but I believe it has great potential once it is adopted more broadly. One of the problems is that many practitioners do not even know what this nascent discipline entails and what they should learn to start practising it. This book is a very good starting point because it offers useful practical guidelines and illustrating cases. Thanks to their professional experiences with practising legal risk management, the authors are uniquely qualified for offering such guidance.-- "Professor Tobias Mahler, Norwegian Research Center for Computers and Law, Faculty of Law, University of Oslo"<br><br>Legal risk management needs to become fully integrated with the practice of law.
