Legal needs have been increasing in recent years and the current challenge of legal teams is focused with the aim of achieving resource optimization, being efficient as an area and not less important, cost reduction.

In the context of the approach to optimizing the processes of the legal departments, it is considered an alternative to the outsourcing and / or subcontracting of their processes, there are currently companies that provide alternative services capable of making an offer of solutions tailored to each need.

It is at this point that the Legal Process Outsourcing (LPO) plays a key role in the new development of legal teams, which can solve the problems through a management tool that allows to focus efforts and skills on those activities that are at the core of the business and add value. In Alster We have a team trained in project management methodologies, where technology is our partner to deliver reliability and transparency through our LPO service.

The demand for LPO has been increasing in recent years due to the different factors such as globalization, increased cost in legal services, development of new technology tools and increasing automation of legal processes.

In addition, the evolution of LPO has undergone various changes in what is the passage of time, since, unlike years ago, there is today greater scalability and diversification of services, understanding that the geographical scope is greater, it allows a variety of languages and allows all to access through digitization.

Another interesting point is that the LPO market is currently focused on a space of greater collaboration and consolidation, taking into account that large legal departments of law firms connotated are in need of choosing LPO suppliers to help them cover the high demand of their customers, thus ending up in a space of mutual collaboration.

Saving costs is also a point in favour of outsourcing legal processes, taking also other advantages such as:

  • Improvement in service levels.
  • It allows to focus internal legal force on high-value activities.
  • It creates additional capacities for unforeseen legal needs.
  • It increases access to external talents.
  • It improves the capacity to rapidly expand or reduce operations.
