Labor and tax areas dominate processes and resources of large companies
The labor and tax areas are responsible for the largest volumes of cases and receive the most resources from companies' legal departments. This is what the Jurídica SA survey shows , commissioned by Torre Comunicação and carried out by the Brazilian Institute of Research and Data Analysis (IBPad) with 100 legal directors (or equivalent positions) from the Valor 1000 list , from the newspaper Valor Econômico .
ConJur presents excerpts from the study exclusively this Saturday (7/9) . The complete survey will be released next Wednesday (12/9) at 9:30 am, in São Paulo.

Another 31% estimated that the area will have greater quality, while 18% predict that it will have greater importance in business.
IBPAD/Torre ComunicaçãoThe issue of the size of the legal department divided those interviewed: 27% believe it will be smaller, while 15% believe it will be larger. The same percentage of executives said that demands should be more internalized. 5% believe that there will be greater outsourcing for newsstands.
In addition, executives were asked to give a rating from zero to 10 (zero being a bad impression and 10 being a great impression) to the factors that influence hiring a law firm. The fact that the firm's lawyers have postgraduate degrees and its good reputation received a score of nine.
