Decision Making in Law Firms
Publication date: Apr 2026
While 72 percent of leaders believe decisions drive business results, only 20 percent trust their decision-making processes. This gap is particularly acute in partnership structures where traditional hierarchical decision-making models don't apply.
Decision Making in Law Firms addresses the disconnect between how law firms say they make decisions and how decisions actually happen. It builds a comprehensive framework covering individual psychology, partnership dynamics, consensus-building, strategic architecture, and operational timing.
Iryna Nikitina exposes the mythology surrounding law firm decision-making, revealing how informal alliances, market pressures, and individual incentives trump formal procedures. Decision Making in Law Firms provides law firm partners with practical tools for understanding and improving their decision-making processes, from individual cognitive patterns to partnership consensus to strategic transformation.

Transform your legal practice with strategy, not just technology.
AI with Purpose is a strategy-first playbook for legal leaders under pressure to "do something with AI" but who don't want to waste money on pilots that never scale. Rather than another tour of tools, the book introduces the Why Equation (Purpose + Clarity + Alignment) and shows how to translate strategic intent into execution through AI-first thinking, client-outcome metrics, and adoption strategies that account for the reality that lawyer attention is scarcer than budget.

Trust Laws in Italy
Publication date: Jan 2027
Italy is a unique jurisdiction when it comes to trusts. Indeed, despite the fact that a trust cannot be governed by Italian law since the Italian civil law system does not provide for the trust institution, trusts have been recognised in Italy since the Italian ratification of the Hague Convention on the Law Applicable to Trusts and on their Recognition in 1989 and have been extensively used in the Italian context. Specific tax rules on trusts have been in force for many years, and extensive case law and administrative guidelines have clarified the legal and tax treatment of trusts in Italy.
The in-depth coverage and on-the-ground expertise makes Trust Laws in Italy a must-have book for global wealthy families as well as Italian and foreign practitioners, such as lawyers; accountants; notaries; bankers; trustees; wealth managers; single and multi-family offices; and legal associations.
