If you do not have a degree in this field, this book [Legal Operations KPIs] brings you plenty more than the basics – put in a legal context! Instead of explaining specifically how for example, throughput time can be utilized in a legal ops context, you can eg. just have a read about MAA (read the book if you want to know what it is 😉). The layout of each spread on each metric is well thought out and repeats itself. If you are struggling with a specific issue, you can start browsing and easily comparing various metrics to establish which could help you track and collect data on the situation.

Legal Operations KPIs – The Professional’s Handbook to Operational Excellence by Mori Kabiri is a book with in-depth, practical examples considering the business and KPIs associated with legal operations. The book covers data, metrics and KPIs, and includes explanations and examples for spend management, budgets, resources and performance management, law firm and vendor management (including external expense distribution analysis), cross-functional collaboration, diversity and inclusion, and risk management and best practices. This is a great toolkit to start off anyone wanting help with practical tips and examples.

This is a well researched and comprehensive treatise that should be required reading for any legal operations professional.

This is a great book to learn about all the different key performance indicators relevant to legal operations. Highly recommended.

I'm jumping on the bandwagon of those who already recommended the book—and that just confirms it’s definitely worth reading. You can find a lot of content about KPIs and OKRs in general, and there’s plenty of talk about how Legal Operations provides value to an organization. But I’ve never seen such a precise analysis and listing of metrics that are specifically suited to provide evidence of that value through reliable data. I’m glad I read it before tackling some KPI-related topics this year—and I’ll certainly recommend it to the team.

Legal Operations KPIs addresses the critical challenge of transforming legal departments from traditional cost centers into dynamic business units, all through data analysis. This book fills a significant gap in the legal field by focusing on specific metrics and KPIs that not only break down the data but also reveal the stories behind it.

There are a lot of really great models and measurements in Legal Operations KPIs, and it might help you figure out what things we should be measuring.

Great learning opportunity! In Mexico legal ops and KPI are topics that aren't discussed as much as they should, there are much benefits for in-house counsels in learning about these topics.

The author demonstrates such a deep understanding of the subject matter and understand KPI's so fundamentally that his work here can easily be adopted and adapted outside legal operations. I highly recommend reading this well written book to get insight as to what good KPI's are, how the affect decision making and how to fine tune them to get a lot of performance improvement, by making decisions that fully incorporate KPI's as presented here. Anyone dealing with KPI might want to have a copy of this book on their desk. This is a book which is written incredibly complete but also accessible to those with less of a background who are willing to put in an effort and understand the book.' Great job

This isn't a book that just sits on a shelf. Believe me - I enjoyed reading it so much, I took it with me on a holiday trip as my hobby read. (I will admit I am a data nerd but still.) What I appreciate most about this book is its practicality. Mori's approach is straightforward and focused on application, which makes the book accessible regardless of your expertise level. The inclusion of digital resources via QR codes and the detailed explanations of each KPI make this a tool I can use consistently to make informed decisions and improve our department's performance and reputation. I appreciate it not only for its depth in legal metrics but also for its broader application across other business functions like compliance and finance. I suspect this text is secretly useful for law firms and vendors as well. Understanding the intricacies of how corporate legal departments operate can be challenging. Legal Operations KPIs acts like a cheat code, offering insights into corporate needs and expectations, which can significantly enhance the services providers offer. As someone deeply involved in our legal department, Legal Operations KPIs has proven to be a highly useful guide. For anyone in a legal operations role looking to make a tangible impact, I'd recommend this book.
