: Law Department ManagementDo ethical companies spend less on their legal budgets?
By Rees Morrison
The issue of Ethisphere, Qtr. 2, 2008 highlights the 93 companies that the Ethisphere Institute honors in 2008 as ?the world?s most ethical companies.? Of them, 29 are not US companies (and for six of them I have done consulting projects) and 33 industries are represented
