Law firms are finally confronting succession planning, moving beyond the old taboo.

Resilience involves a unified firm culture, a social contract of mutual responsibility, and a long‑term investment mindset. Firms that adopt stewardship and accountability are better positioned to adapt to market shifts and technology changes.
