Legal Insights 2026 – a changing market, examined up close
How can you make smart use of AI within a legal team? And what do you really expect from flexible legal support today? We asked in-house legal teams and legal interim managers, and compiled their answers into a single report.
Why this report?
The role of the in-house lawyer is changing rapidly, driven by more complex regulations, digitalisation and AI. At the same time, budgets are under pressure. Flexible legal support is therefore becoming increasingly important, but do companies’ needs align with what interim legal managers have to offer? Hyphen Legal surveyed both sides of the table to find out.
Two perspectives, one market
For in-house legal teams
Where are other in-house legal teams feeling the most pressure today, and how do they view the coming years? The report highlights their biggest challenges, how they are tackling AI and compliance, and when and why they opt for temporary legal support.
For legal interim managers
How is the market in which you operate evolving, and what do other interim managers see as the key trends in their assignments? The report also highlights what clients really value when hiring an interim manager, and where your positioning can make a difference.
