As in-house counsel look to drive down costs and build up efficiency, they have plenty of reasons to turn to legal process outsourcing (LPO). A new survey of corporate counsel shows that they see LPO playing a bigger role in the law department of tomorrow—some 80 percent said they expect to see the LPO industry expand and improve its services over the next five years.
A new survey, “Future of Legal Process Outsourcing,” was conducted by Clutch Group, a firm that helps general counsel manage legal and business problems, and Legal Business UK, a monthly magazine for the global legal market. The survey asked more than 200 senior in-house attorneys in the United States, United Kingdom and Asia to weigh in on how the view outsourcing of legal matters.
