Outside-counsel invoice questions
When a law firm’s invoice arrives, legal operations has one worksheet ready: every line set against the agreed rates, the approved matter budget and the company’s own billing guidelines, each difference written as a neutral question for the firm. Nothing is sent, paid or rejected until people decide.

Privilege log entry check
Before a draft privilege log goes to review counsel, the paralegal gets an entry-by-entry check against counsel’s approved format and role map, and a list of logged documents’ attachments with no entry. It checks metadata only: review counsel makes every privilege call and writes or approves every description.

Reference check question plan
After the interviews, the recruiter gets short reference calls aimed only at what the panel still could not establish, put to the referees the candidate named and agreed to, with a note sheet for each call that keeps the referee's own words. It gives no view on the candidate.

Research plan for counsel
Before an associate or paralegal starts on a partner's research question, they hold a one-to-two-page plan: the question split into sub-questions, the stated facts against each, the firm's own notes to read first, where to search and with what terms, and the gaps. Leads, not authorities: nothing is named from memory.

Weekly status requests to outside counsel
Every Monday, in-house counsel has a draft status request for each outside firm that owes one: what has happened since the last update, the dates on record to confirm, decisions pending and spend against budget, plus the matters skipped and why. Counsel edits and sends each one.

Work sample exercise brief
For one approved role, the hiring manager gets a practical exercise: a bounded task from the role's real work, instructions for the candidate with a time limit and adjustments, and the evidence the panel will look for. The panel judges the work; nothing is rated here.
