Outsourcing Services

       Companies outsource critical, non-core operations to reduce costs, improve competitive advantage, and to free themselves to focus on core activities.

Outsourcing, however, carries risks for both companies and service providers, as they bind themselves to one another through long-term legal contracts that could vitally affect their business.

Legal Source's Approach to Outsourcing

Legal Source takes a comprehensive approach to negotiating and documenting an outsourcing arrangement.

We work backward from the winding-down of the outsourcing relationship and the realization of objectives to assisting with legal aspects of the initial request for proposal.

Legal Source's outsourcing team has the resources to support a "dual-track" negotiation in which the provider to offer the best terms is awarded the contract.

O ur involvement in the outsourcing relationship often starts with the preparation of the requests for proposal and does not end with the signing of the contract. When asked, we work with you to respond to issues requiring interpretation of the contract and to strategize on how to resolve potential disputes
