FAQs About Outsourcing Legal Roles

Get In Touch
Can I start with just one Legal Assistant or Paralegal?

Yes. We understand that offshoring legal support might feel like a big step, so starting with one role (like a Paralegal to manage research or a Legal Assistant to help with documentation) gives you a low-risk way to trial the model. From there, you can expand based on what works for your team and workload.

Will my offshore staff understand U.S. legal processes?

That’s one of the first things we ensure. We recruit professionals with experience in common law systems – many of whom have worked with international firms, in-house counsel teams or legal outsourcing providers. Plus, during onboarding, we help embed them into your way of working, so they get up to speed with your internal processes and tools quickly.

Is my sensitive legal data and client information protected?

Yes, and we treat this with the seriousness it deserves. All staff operate in secure, access-controlled offices, with ISO-certified infrastructure, VPN-ready systems and strict confidentiality policies. NDAs are signed at both the employment and client level, and access to documents can be customised to your preferences. You stay in full control.

What if we deal with sensitive matters like litigation or contracts? Is offshoring still appropriate?

Absolutely. The key is choosing the right offshore partner – one with robust infrastructure and legal-grade confidentiality protocols. Your offshore staff aren’t freelancers or shared resources. They’re dedicated professionals working only for your firm, in secure offices, with clear governance around confidentiality. Many clients offshore litigation support, contract review, discovery tasks and more without compromise.

How involved do I need to be in managing my offshore legal team?

You’ll be as involved as you are with your local staff – managing tasks, timelines and quality expectations. We take care of everything else: recruitment, IT setup, HR, office infrastructure and performance monitoring. Think of it as having your legal team in another office, but one you didn’t have to lease or fit out.

We use very specific legal tools and platforms. Will they know how to use them?

We recruit based on your tech stack. Whether you’re using LEAP, Actionstep, Practice Evolve, NetDocuments or something niche – we’ll source candidates with that experience. If onboarding is required, we help manage that too. Your new team members are chosen to align with how you already work, so there’s no steep learning curve or disruption.

Is offshore legal support only for large law firms or in-house teams?

Not at all. In fact, many of our clients are small to mid-sized law firms who need to improve efficiency without expanding local overheads. Offshore support allows them to grow steadily, meet increasing demand and avoid local burnout. It’s a scalable, sustainable solution.

How do I maintain quality and compliance with offshore legal staff?

It’s a shared approach: you set the standards, we help enforce them. All staff work under your processes, checklists and documentation practices. You approve every hire and manage the output just like you would locally. We support retention, monitor performance and handle compliance from an infrastructure standpoint.

What kind of savings should I expect by outsourcing legal roles?

Most clients save up to 70% compared to equivalent local hires – especially for high-volume, time-intensive roles like legal admin, document review or compliance support. But the real benefit goes beyond the dollar figure: it’s freeing up your top legal talent to focus on high-value, billable or strategic work, while your offshore team takes care of the heavy lifting.

What makes the Philippines a strong choice for legal offshoring?

The Philippines has a strong English-speaking workforce, many with legal education backgrounds or experience supporting Western firms. Your offshore team also works your business hours, no matter the time zone within the U.S, making real-time collaboration easy. Culturally, there’s a strong emphasis on professionalism, loyalty and quality –  making it an ideal environment for long-term legal team support.
