Law.com‘s article–“Now for Law Firms, Too: Competing for Business Online“–has some very interesting information, but the most surprising, in my opinion, is this statement:
Other GE divisions have sought to reduce legal costs by outsourcing work to lawyers in India.
I have heard of the outsourcing to India in the computer industry and even in the financial services industry, but this is the first I have heard of the outsourcing to India occurring in the legal field. If anyone else has any good information or links on this, I would love to read them and would pass them along to readers.
