Outsource All the Lawyers

Tech support, financial services and retailing led the wave of business services increasingly being sourced overseas. But the offshoring effect is now rippling outward and upward to encompass more sophisticated-and more profitable-work. Now, a growing number of U.S. companies are turning to India-based lawyers for a wide range of legal services.
While Indian lawyers cannot argue in U.S. courts, they can negotiate and draft contracts, review litigation documents, conduct competitive intelligence, perform patent research and analysis, and manage nondisclosure agreement processes for some of America's leading corporations. What's more, operating from state-of-the-art offices half a world away in Mumbai, India, these lawyers provide services at 25 to 70 percent less than the cost of comparable legal work done in the U.S.
