Legal Research Outsourcing

Legal research is the part of Legal / LPO services. Legal Research is the process of recognizing and regaining information vital to maintain legal decision-making. Legal research consists of each step of a line of action that starts with a study of the facts of a problem and ended with the application and communication of the results of the analysis. The drafted result of legal research is called the legal memorandum.

The procedures of legal research differ according to the country and the legal system concerned. Legal research is executed by anyone with a requirement for legal information, including lawyers, law librarians, and paralegals. By using database tool like Lexis Nexis, we get the source of legal information.

The Lexis Nexis tool contains current statutes and laws of countries mainly US, UK, Australia, Canada, Hong Kong and a large volume of published case opinions.
