'Ethics of Outsourcing Legal Work' slated for April 7 WLAM webinar

The Women Lawyers Association of Michigan will present the webinar “Ethics of Outsourcing Legal Work” on Thursday, April 7, beginning at noon.

Legal outsourcing is used by 79 percent of law firms and 71 percent of corporate law departments, though less by smaller firms (according to a 2021 Thomson Reuters study). Presenters Patrice Asimakis of LegalEase Solutions LLC, Jeremy Babener of Structured Consulting, and Mary Ellen Murrah of Vista Consulting Team will identify what attorneys need to know about outsourcing, how to use it, and how to avoid malpractice traps, including:

• How the ABA and state bar associations have applied ethical rules in the context of outsourcing legal services and support

• What ethical standards attorneys must satisfy when reviewing outside work, protecting client confidentiality, and charging for outside services

• How to choose, manage, and effectively use outsourced legal services with these ethical standards in mind

• How your firm can outsource legal research and writing in a financially beneficial way

They’ll also cover other services regularly outsourced by law firms to keep their focus on cases and increase profit margins.
