obtaining legal support services from an outside law firm or

in-house legal departments or organizations outsource
legal work from areas where it is costly to perform, such as
the United States or Europe to areas where it can be
performed at a significantly decreased cost, primarily India.
Legal Process Outsourcing is a high end industry that has
been growing rapidly in the recent years.
