In this fast-paced and ever-changing world, and in an environment where corporate legal teams are facing tight budgets, we understand that finding the right legal support for the right job can be challenging.
Whether you need to conduct an internal investigation, respond to a regulator notice, or perhaps require expert legal advice on an interim basis, we can help you to manage the peaks and troughs of your team's workload.
How we can help
We will identify the right people to embed in your team, or supplement the teams of Allens lawyers working on your matters to ensure a high-quality, cost-effective outcome.
Managed document review
We provide low-cost options for carrying out document review for litigation, regulatory investigations, due diligence and other document-intensive matters. Our flexible team is able to scale up and down rapidly, in line with your demands. We typically provide savings of 20–30% through our project management methodologies, lower-cost resources and technology-enabled approach. Our quality control procedures and reporting processes ensure a high-quality output that meets budget and time estimates. Allens also has significant experience working with legal process outsourcing (LPO). We have a preferred supplier arrangement with an international LPO, working with people in one of their Indian locations, and leverage this resource where required on matters.
