Legal Inc gets personnel
Edisclosure, litigation and technology specialist Legal Inc has announced the launch of a new service aimed at addressing some of the key resourcing issues for today’s litigation support department.
Incterim will see Legal Inc consultants made available on short, medium or long-term secondments, enabling law firms to scale up teams with temporary staff who have specific litigation expertise and coal-face experience.
As Lisa Burton, co-founder of Legal Inc, explains, adequately resourcing caseloads when demands can flex so alarmingly is not as straightforward as it seems:
“The feedback we received from litigation support managers was that they all need outside help at some time or another, and not just extra lit support bodies but also increasingly IT consultants, workflow engineers and project managers. They were finding that going through mainstream recruitment agencies was not always satisfactory.
Common problems included people having the requisite skills but not the relevant experience within the litigation environment, which made for protracted learning curves and time-consuming supervision. And then there was finding the skills in the first place: identifying useful generalists at one end of the spectrum or essential specialists at the other was taking time and effort they could ill afford to spare.
As one of the UK’s most respected litigation support and technology consultancies, we have built our business on bringing together both legal and technical talent, immersing them within this unique arena and deploying them at the legal coal-face. We’re looking to supplement teams with seasoned practitioners, who understand the drivers and dynamics of litigation, who know every aspect of the EDRM working model, who have proven track records in their own particular subjects, and who can bring immediate value to any project needing extra resources. No protracted learning curve, no hand holding, no knowledge gaps, no process flaws, no management weaknesses.”
Key skills and roles covered include:
• IT systems architecture, infrastructure and security consultancy
• ‘Best of breed’ litigation support and other COTS application advice, consultancy

• Consultancy and advice on secure data collection
