I spoke with Michael Tal, an attorney, who served for several years in the corporate and M&A departments of both Skadden, Arps and White & Case LLP, and the co-founder and co-CEO of BusyLamp, a provider of enterprise legal management solutions with offices in Frankfurt, Germany and New York City.We discussed the genesis of BusyLamp and its mission of bringing transparency into the billing cycle, the distinctions between how European and American companies manage their legal spend, and the impact of client influence on billing relationships, among others.
