Global financial instability, high inflation, central bank rate hikes and geopolitical uncertainties have significantly impacted the Canadian legal landscape, giving rise to new industry trends and a noticeable increase in litigation cases filed across the country. This influence is underscored by BTI Consulting Group’s report, where in-house counsel surveyed anticipate a substantial 54% increase in their legal spend budgets allocated for dispute resolution in 2024.
