[QUOTE="AlexJ, post: 145501, member: 24847"] There are a few ways- 1. For smaller law firms lawyers may have a broader practice but focused on one industry. For example instead of doing purely M&A work they could do more ‘corporate’ work but in a specific sector. 2. In larger law firms teams can be further sub divided by industry. See for example HSF has an energy disputes team. 3. Grouping teams together. Teams sub divided as above can then be grouped together. Both NRF and White and Case have specialist ‘Africa’ groups that focus on the region. In reality this is grouping together the sun divided teams from 2. More generally a sector approach normally means that a firm will focus its resources and its efforts to attract work on specific sectors, and will attend industry events and put on talks in the industries that it chooses to focus on. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
