LPO, What is it?

You might be asking yourself, why are there always so many abbreviations in the legal world? Well LPO is a surprisingly simple concept! The textbook definition is:

“The practice of a law firm or corporation obtaining legal support services from an outside law firm or legal support services company (LPO provider). When the LPO provider is based in another country, the practice is called offshoring and involves the practice of outsourcing any activity except those where personal presence or contact is required, e.g. appearances in court and face-to-face negotiations.”
