Most RFP (requests for proposal) responses, and pitches for new legal work require some (if not all) virtual and online communications, such as video conferences, telephone calls, uploads, and emails. 

When working remotely, video conferencing is the best proxy for an in-person meeting. So, all lawyers gain competitive advantages by optimizing their online pitch and proposal skills. During this webinar (based on the acclaimed “Perfect Your Pitch for Lawyers” workshops), three leading in-house counsel speakers will address the topics below and will provide specific tips for what to do and not to do when approaching prospects or pitching for new business online. The facilitator will summarize the key takeaways:
