Outsourcing legal services

By admin

There are legal outsourcing blogs and there are more legal outsourcing blogs. I for one have no intention of hijacking my own blog to lay down the zillionth word on the subject. But while a great many of my fellow members of this exalted profession would readily screw up their noses up on a sniff of the word “LPO”, I have some affinity to the concept of a flat legal world.

I have the distinction of having once worked in a legal sweatshop for an amazingly long 5 months. While I clearly wasn’t hooked with the concept then, it got me thinking of the ways in which the future could move for legal professionals and our system of justice, not just in India but worldwide. There are incredible possibilities under the surface. But for now I will let the vision lie and make way for a modest section on this blog called LPO Diligence. I’m posting details on LPOs - six a month. Check it out and let me know what you think!
