Inaugural Meeting held November 7, 2007
The inaugural Meeting of IAOP’s Legal Outsourcing Chapter took place via webinar on Wednesday, November 7, 2007 and began at 11:00 am.
The topic for the first meeting was: Legal Outsourcing: 2007 and Beyond, and included:
- An Overview of the Legal Outsourcing Marketplace in 2007
- BPO Entry into the LPO Marketplace
Future meetings will cover a wide variety of legal issues related to outsourcing, and not simply those confined to the Legal Process Outsourcing arena. Possible future meeting subjects for discussion may include:
- Topical discussion around key terms within outsourcing contracts where there is obfuscation, confusion or conflicts (e.g. Intellectual Property Rights in BPO, Limitation of liability as a result of privacy act violation, safe-harbor act provisions)
- Lessons learned from negotiating sessions
- Global agreements and terms that affect a global agreement (e.g. enforcement of judgment in another country, IP rights, local laws and their impact on agreement - supersedence)
The primary purpose of the IAOP Legal Outsourcing Topic Chapter is to provide a platform for Legal Outsourcing solution providers, clients, potential clients and other interested parties operating or intending on operating within the emerging Legal Outsourcing space to share ideas, concepts, practical guidelines and contacts with each other. This should allow for the commencement of discussions among providers and clients aimed at developing an industry-wide recognized standard and accreditation program through IAOP, which will assist in improving the performance of both existing and future Legal Outsourcing relationships. Once established, the Chapter members will also consider the institution of a Global Legal Qualification for attorneys employed by Legal Process Outsourcing companies.
