Every company needs legal services at one point or another. And whether you’ve got one in-house attorney, or a department full of them, paralegal outsourcing is an innovative way to maximize productivity, while lowering overhead costs.
Also, as it relates to offshoring, you will be able to take advantage of unique economics to not only improve costs but efficiency as well. Because the Philippine economy is so outsourcing centric, law graduates often opt to work in call centers that offer salaries that are even more competitive than what they would earn as an attorney, meaning your paralegal workforce can, in fact, be practicing lawyers, at a cost that is even lower than you would pay for a paralegal in your local area.
