As you all know, as a legal operations analyst, I am constantly looking for ways to demonstrate the value and efficiency of my work. I recently started reading Mori Kabiri’s book on Legal Operations and have found, in the pages I’ve read so far, precise tools to optimize processes and manage them more effectively. The explanations about KPIs and metrics are clear and applicable. Although I haven’t finished it yet, it has already left me with a very positive impression. Once I do, I’ll share some insights with you to keep you updated.

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.

This book (in English or Spanish) is a great reference resource that helps explain what a metric is, what an indicator is, the different types of indicators, and how to visualize data for legal management. The book also provides different examples of indicators related to spend, budget, management, diversity, data quality, legal compliance, and risk management; and as if that weren’t enough, it also includes an entire chapter on best practices with a diagnostic tool for legal data analytics. In any organization, having the right indicators is crucial to properly guide work, innovation, technology implementation, and process improvement. This book will save hours of research by presenting a wide variety of indicators and helping teams decide which ones are right for them. This book is a major contribution to Spanish-language literature on legal operations, informed by years of industry experience, and will help accelerate knowledge for legal management teams across Spanish-speaking countries.

Legal Operations KPIs is terrific! What sets it apart from the others is the comprehensive description of each metric, as well as data sources and alternatives. I refer to it all the time.

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.

Excellent to bring Law Firm KPIs adapted to the Brazilian context. I liked the focus on pricing, productivity and profitability. This speaks volumes to how AI can support real-time measurements and decisions.
