Legal Process Outsourcing - Who Benefits

Filed in archive Outsourcing Issues on August 20, 2008

?Unlike the US, where it is reasonably settled that the financial benefit of Legal Process Outsourcing is primarily passed through to the client, the rules in the UK are a bit different.

Apparently, clifford Chance is intending to offshore support functions (including client work) while still retaining the ability to price those services. Such an approach - at least for the type of services that LPOs provide - would be problematic in may US jurisdictions, and may also be viewed by clients with trepidation.

Time will tell if the Clifford Chance model will be sustainable in a marketplace where the justification for permitting offshoring is cost-driven, not quality-driven.
