Direct Supervisory Authority And Making Systematic And Rigorous Legal Process Outsourcing Decisions 8

This author asserts there is an inverse relationship between opaque legal work and structural risks. For a service provider to competently provide opaque services:

1.     The provider and the lawyer have an existing long-term relationship as to opaque services wherein the lawyer has transferred substantial technical knowledge to the provider; or
2.     The provider has at least 5 years of experience performing substantial similar opaque tasks for which the lawyer’s desires to contract services and the parties conduct an extensive interview wherein the provider obtains all the lawyer's thoughts, ideas and subjective preferences for performing the opaque services; or

3.     The lawyer commits time, resources and money to transfer, by training, a large amount of knowledge to the provider.
