Just finished reading Legal Operations KPIs by Mori Kabiri — and it’s an excellent resource. There’s plenty of material out there on KPIs and OKRs, but what stood out for me in this book was its practical approach to defining metrics that genuinely demonstrate the value of Legal Operations through data. It goes beyond theory and focuses on what matters most: making performance measurable and meaningful. One section I particularly appreciated was the emphasis on turning complex analytics into actionable insights. For anyone who has wrestled with translating data into something stakeholders can understand, this is a game-changer. It’s not just about tracking numbers — it’s about telling a clear story of impact. This couldn’t have come at a better time for me, as I’m working on KPI-related projects this year. The ideas in this book have already influenced how I think about aligning metrics with organizational goals, and I’ll be sharing it with my team. If you’re looking to make KPIs less intimidating and more strategic, I highly recommend giving it a read.

• Creo que con la instrucción de este libro de operaciones legales es un muy buen ejemplo y es muchísimo material. Lo vas a tener que revisar ahí despacito e irlo viendo cómo le podemos sacar el mejor provecho, pero trae muy buenos tips que creo que nosotros, como abogados, no lo traemos tanto a la naturaleza. No se nos da mucho tener estas gráficas y ser de repente muy ordenados con la información. Y esta, no me queda la menor duda que es algo que tenemos que ir implementando, que tenemos que ir aprendiendo poco a poco.

This is a comprehensive, accessible, and future-ready guide for anyone tasked with managing or modernizing law firm performance reporting. I recommend Law Firm KPIs as a go-to reference for FP&A leaders, pricing directors, and legal ops professionals serious about building a metrics-driven culture in their firm.
Your hard work and dedication to its development are truly appreciated. Thank you for creating a valuable resource, and I look forward to exploring the insights and knowledge it holds.
Being excellent and client-focused is no longer enough. Success depends equally on becoming data-centric—extracting data and knowledge from partners' heads into firm-wide systems. Structured, complete data is the launchpad for utilising the potential of Gen-AI, and KPIs are the levers that shape the data-centric culture law firms should want to build.
