Legal Oversight Management- what is it, when to use it…

Legal Oversight and Case Management for Litigation of Property Matters in Turkey

In situations where litigation is the most obvious next step to resolve a dispute, it is not uncommon to refrain from pursuing matters through the courts, because of the daunting prospects of the time, work and aggravation entailed; researching for an experienced solicitor, attorney, or advocate; drafting up and presenting a summary outline of the heads of case; obtaining an opinion that may be interpreted to provide an accurate understanding of the prospects of success; negotiating the fee structure – upfront costs and success fees; agreeing budgets with legal counsel and scheduling a payment plan; collecting together all the supporting evidence and collating it into a delineated file; managing due care at the different stages of the case to ensure the costs are incurred wisely, and the next steps in the case progression are in keeping with the overall objectives and purpose; tracking the courts decisions and planning for preparations in advance of the next hearing; negotiating settlement offers prior to or after court judgement; assessing different alternatives for enforcement proceedings to collect monies; negotiating payment plans; and generally dealing with the complexities. 

These challenges, including the time and energy required, not to mention cost budgeting, are real barriers to proceeding for most people. And that is why these activities are better managed by an experienced case management practitioner, to ensure the nitty gritty workload is managed efficiently, and cost effectively, with as little risk, as possible. This is ‘Legal Oversight Management’.


Legal Oversight Management is not about legal advice- that is only provided by members of a legal bar association- instead it is about the ‘project management’ of the case. And that includes communicating all aspects of the legal advice, and case matters, in an efficient and succinct manner for the purposes of avoiding mis-understandings, providing clarity, enforcing performance obligations of the legal advisors, and maintaining costs within budget. Worrying about the costs of the clock ticking over and bills adding up while one is desperate to obtain clarification from a legal adviser, is just one example of how and why Legal Oversight Management is a viable solution to dealing with case management challenges.

 

Litigation is a long and winding road, and it’s true what they say…’only the lawyer’s benefit’. Well not entirely true- the lawyers certainly benefit most. Bringing litigation to recoup losses, if successful, will result in a positive outcome in terms of money regained, but rarely 100% of the amount lost, and rarely to the extent that it makes the plaintiff one hundred percent ‘whole’ again. Never-the-less, when large sums are involved, recouping 50-80% is a reasonable outcome. And if you have the services of an experienced project manager for your case, to  deal with the Legal Oversight Management, it makes the prospects of engaging in litigation very much more manageable, easy, and affordable… thereby increasing the attractiveness of the litigation route, as a solution to be applied for difficult dispute resolutions.
