Alt-V Law x Howden present
Legal Halo | Risky Business
The forgotten business case for transformation
6 – 10pm, Tuesday 30th June 2026, Shoreditch House, London
Annual professional indemnity insurance shopping is a staple dark art of law firm life. There is usually a small number of CX involved, but the factors surrounding prices are not widely understood. This Legal Halo illuminates this very dark corner of the law – the levers that impact PI insurance premiums.
This event is a special collaboration between Alt-V Law and Howden and together we will explore four questions, each of which reflects a point of tension between how firms experience transformation and how risk is assessed.
Every firm knows the feeling: The moment when standing still feels safer, but moving forward feels necessary. Risky Business is about that liminal threshold. The thin/invisible line between preservation and progress.
In the Tom Cruise film, risk is a catalyst. It forces motion, exposes character, and reveals the systems underneath. In law firms, transformation plays the same role. It disrupts familiar controls, introduces new modes, and challenges the structures that once felt stable. Yet without it, risk compounds quietly in legacy processes, opaque data, and brittle governance.
This Legal Halo event is a live debate built around that paradox.
During this live debate, our expert panel of law firm leaders and insurers will examine how risk is created, where it hides, and how it is priced. They will challenge the assumption that change impacts exposure and explore whether a well-programmed transformation agenda can reduce premiums and claims, strengthen controls and shift insurer confidence.
The conversation will move across behaviour, operating models, technology architecture, and decision rights. It will surface the barriers that make progress feel dangerous, and the design choices that allow firms to take risk deliberately rather than absorb it by default.
This is a discussion about how firms can stop treating risk as a brake on transformation and start using it as a design constraint that makes change more resilient, insurable, and commercial.
