Legal outsourcing is used by 79 percent of law firms and 71 percent of corporate law departments, though less by smaller firms (according to a 2021 Thomson Reuters study). Presenters Patrice Asimakis, Jeremy Babener, and Mary Ellen Murrah will identify what you need to know about outsourcing, how to use it, and how to avoid malpractice traps. They’ll also cover other services regularly outsourced by personal injury firms to keep their focus on cases and increase profit margins.
By attending this presentation, you'll learn:
- How the ABA and State Bar Associations have applied ethical rules in the context of outsourcing legal services and support
- What ethical standards you must satisfy when reviewing outside work, protecting client confidentiality, and charging for outside services
- How to select, manage, and effectively use outsourced legal services with these ethical standards in mind
- How your firm can outsource legal research and complaint and motion drafting in a financially beneficial way
