In addition to "Records Management in the Legal Environment: A Handbook of Practice and Procedure," available from the ARMA Bookstore is Cunningham and Montana, The Lawyer's Guide to Records Management and Retention, also available at the ARMA Bookstore.
I've been a approached by some law firms about doing "the project" (A to Z) for them. I've done 20 consultancies in various areas, but I wonder how much "law" one might need in the legal environment. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
Mike
