Global Sourcing

Many law firms offer expertise in the disparate areas of law required for sourcing. Few also offer real depth of experience in the management, commercial and technical prerequisites for success.

We provide legal counsel which ensures a comprehensive, integrated approach to identifying issues, focusing on what makes for success and limiting a client's risk. In addition, because members of our sourcing team have experience in running businesses and in the law departments of large companies—including serving as general counsel of a major IT sourcing vendor—we intuitively understand the commercial drivers that motivate our clients, and we readily adopt our client's objectives as our own. Every sourcing and every client is different, and that is how we treat them. In an area as difficult, complex and prone to failure as sourcing, any other approach would jeopardize the success of the project.

Our attorneys also have well-honed skills in technical fields.  We include in our ranks partners with education and operating experience in technology—with a knowledge base well beyond the appreciation of high technology that one would expect of an IT sourcing specialist.

Helping clients get the most out of sourcing also requires detailed experience in those countries around the world where the greatest cost savings are realized.  We help clients analyze and determine how to achieve these cost advantages while at the same time preserving performance levels, intellectual property rights and data privacy.

And if a project does go wrong, we know how to protect your key interests and successfully restructure the transaction.
