New Web Site Focuses on Blending Offshore and Domestic Resources to Reduce Corporate Legal CostsOCTOBER 24, 2005 – A new web site, www.offshore-legal-services.com, was launched today to address both the opportunities and the issues related to the outsourcing of labor-intensive corporate legal tasks to offshore and domestic resources. The site is sponsored and maintained by Contract Counsel (Royal Oak, MI), a legal staffing and discovery services firm. Both corporations and law firms are facing difficult choices with respect to the cost/value ratio of legal services such as document review and processing for large-scale litigation, mergers and acquisitions, patent drafting and other projects. Combinations of domestic and offshore resources, enabled through advanced process and technology, are now being utilized. Offshore and onshore outsourcing of legal services is helping companies to lower costs, which can translate to increased shareholder value, and provide more staying power in protracted litigation. The site contains extensive profiles and facts on the legal education system and legal services industry in India, with extensive links to articles and resources, and a blog with outsourcing issues and news. Related information and recent images are available for downloading. Comprehensive perspective papers can also be downloaded via a request form on the web site. The address is www.offshore-legal-services.com. PR Contact: David Schmidt, Smith-Winchester  |
