In today’s global and interconnected world, organizations are constantly seeking innovative ways to gain a competitive edge, and one strategy getting traction is the use of offshore talent. From lawyers to legal technical skills, the corporate and law firm worlds are relying more and more on those outside the U.S. for the expertise and resources necessary to deliver their core services.

I was the GC at two large banks (Lehman Brothers and Deutsche Bank) for a combined 20 years before joining QuisLex. I was a very satisfied former client and after connecting with Ram [Vasudevan, QuisLex’s CEO] at a conference, one thing led to another, and now I’m proud to say I’ve been at QuisLex for over seven years. Having walked in the shoes of a GC in a highly regulated industry really does give me an edge when it comes to working with the clients we serve.

Today more than ever, legal departments are focused on cost containment. For most, outside counsel services are among their largest cost areas. And high spend on outside counsel often results in smaller budgets for other needs including technology and headcount.

I started my career at QuisLex over 12 years ago. I was a student completing my law degree, and I vividly remember the day I met QuisLex through a recruitment program on campus. I was curious to know more about the organization because back then, the legal process outsourcing market was just picking up momentum. After interviewing, I was informed I was selected to join QuisLex after I completed my final exams.
