PROBLEM WORTH SOLVING
Conflicts checks are the cornerstone for avoiding risk in taking on new
business, so it is imperative to hold the process in a high regard. It is
particularly important for clients of legal services providers to know that
their lawyers are ethical.

transparency through streamlined due diligence, which allows them
to spend more time on billable work.

7. The International Organization for Standards
has identified the following benefits
of standardization:
FOR BUSINESSES
Standardization provides cost
savings, enhanced customer
satisfaction, access to new
markets, increased market share
and environmental benefits
FOR SOCIETY
When products and
services conform to standards,
consumers can have confidence
that they are safe and that the
service provider is reliable
FOR GOVERNMENT
Standardization can support
public policy by referencing
standards in regulations; most
states have adopted the
ABA model rules

8. There is currently no known industry
standard process for conflicts checks.
We surveyed LinkedIn.com’s
Conflicts of Interest Community to establish a
baseline to begin forming a framework that all
law firms can use to improve efficiency and
accuracy of conflict checks globally.

approach to conflicts checks. Everyone
manages their information differently
