Many law firms and businesses are now outsourcing expensive and time-consuming legal tasks that were once in-house to third-party companies known as alternative legal service providers (ALSPs).
ALSPs are independent niche companies that specialize in providing high-demand legal services like:
- Document review
- Contract management
- Litigation support
- Discovery and electronic discovery
- Contract lawyers and staffing
- IP management
- Investigation support and legal research
As a relatively new phenomenon in the legal industry, new service categories are constantly emerging in the growing ALSP market.
