Law Firms Contemplate Outsourcing
It has been noticed that many legal firms in the United States are now planning to outsource their operations to third-party companies in India and other countries. Recently, Seattle-based Perkins Coie LLP formed a task force to look into offshore outsourcing. The group would develop some initial recommendations on issue of legal outsourcing. The legal industry has been traditionally reluctant to endorse changes in the industry. However, in the recent years, they have acknowledged the need and benefits of outsourcing, which result in better productivity, quality and cost-efficiency. More and more law firms are now considering how they might cut costs by moving portions of work to other lower-cost markets.
Some observers predict that outsourcing of legal services, which can range from work typically performed by paralegals to that usually done by attorneys, will accelerate as law firms respond to clients' desire to manage their costs.
