In fact, these associations are intended, because a limited liability company ("LLC") is an entity which partakes of characteristics of both a limited partnership and a corporation.

Taming the Litigation Beast with Legal Project Management Technology / Being in-house counsel charged with managing complex litigation must be a lot like being a lion tamer. Armed with just a chair and a whip, you are surrounded by snarling beasts, each of which seems intent on making a meal out of you. First, there is the opposing party and its counsel. No surprise there. You expected to have to take them on. Second, however, is your own counsel who can’t seem to deliver much of anything on budget; who doesn’t understand that winning at all costs can be almost as bad as losing; whose definition of a “win” doesn’t always square with your goals; and who too frequently tells you about tactical and strategic decisions after they are made. Unexpectedly large bills appear without warning and reflect substantial activities that were not first cleared with you. Then there’s the most dangerous lion of all lurking right behind you, i.e., your boss, who is more than a little dismayed by the cost overruns and the lack of meaningful progress, not to mention your inability to give instantaneous up-to-the-minute detailed status reports on demand. You must be wondering how you got into this fix and, more importantly, how you can avoid it the next time around. industryid: 0 Loft, Donald A.
