Up until recently, the legal profession experienced few if any dramatic changes in how they operate. However and in the last few years, the rise of new technologies combined with the renewed drive to cut costs in the wake of the global downturn has increasingly forced law firms and corporate legal departments alike to reevaluate how they operate and to consider outsourcing the more mundane tasks associated with the legal profession.

This has led to the rise of legal process outsourcing (LPO) along with numerous new and unfamiliar firms, many of which are based offshore, to specialize in providing LPO services to both law firms and corporate legal departments. However and with so many firms now operating in the new LPO arena, choosing an appropriate provider of LPO related services can be difficult. Further complicating the selection and decision making process is the fact that the legal profession itself is governed by strict accountability rules and ethical regulations regarding who can practice law and how confidential client information must be handled.

With the purpose to make it easy for the companies and individuals to find an ideal LPO service provider partner who not only help businesses to clear out their legal stumbling blocks, but also help in meeting their growth objectives, siliconindia identifies ‘Top 5 Legal Process Outsourcing Firms 2016’.
