It is commonplace for global organizations to employ dozens of law firms to meet their various legal needs, including translation for complex multi-language litigation. A significant amount of money is spent on legal translation services for cross-border and multilingual dealings.
Outsourcing Decisions to Outside Counsel Presents Challenges
Corporations that outsource their translations to outside counsel, who, in turn, outsource the translations to various third-party providers. This presents several unforeseen challenges. With translations spread out, managing multiple vendors and invoices becomes confusing, and it is easy to lose track of spending. Vetting data security policies, guaranteeing consistent terminology or accuracy in translations, and ensuring reliable and efficient support across vendors and quality standards present additional challenges. It becomes increasingly impossible for the corporation to mitigate these risks and comprehensively ensure the accuracy of translations.
A Consolidated Approach to Complex Multi-Language Litigation
There are lasting benefits to working with an experienced legal language services provider. To ensure you understand and gain all the help of a consolidated legal translation strategy, we are hosting a webinar with the Association of e-Discovery Specialists (ACEDS) with doeLEGAL, inc. We’ll discuss strategies to work with one provider who can deliver the answers to managing complex multi-language projects to reduce costs, improve transparency, increase accuracy, reduce data security concerns and improve efficiency during our webinar.
International corporations who use outside counsel can use these benefits without making any problematic internal changes or creating additional counsel work. Choose a reliable and experienced LSP to handle organization-wide translations and then instruct each law firm under contract to obtain all future legal translation services from that LSP. Outside counsel can instruct the LSP on your behalf, which will immediately achieve greater efficiency, consistent quality, and cost savings for your organization.
