On-Demand Legal Resources When YOU Need Them!

LexLocom is a legal outsourcing specialist, providing Canada’s legal community with document review services, temporary/part-time legal staffing, and consulting services.

The Canadian legal market is beginning to follow the trend established by its US and British counterparts in embracing the cost-savings that can be gleaned from outsourcing commoditized legal work such as document review. Clients are growing weary of the cost associated with law firms staffing document review projects internally with junior associates and articling students, billed out at law firm rates. This practice has all but disappeared in the US and the UK, where clients have demanded that law firms use lower cost document review options offered by outsourcers.

Recognizing this reality, LexLocom was founded by ZSA, Canada’s largest and only national legal recruitment firm. Through this affiliation LexLocom has access to over 15,000 experienced legal professionals from a myriad of discipline and practice areas. In this way, LexLocom can offer experienced, licensed lawyers who can dependably and efficiently perform any type of document review at less than half the hourly rate charged by law firms. LexLocom also draws on this pool of expertise to provide Project Counsel services to law firms and corporate legal departments in need of a temporary boost in resources. Whether you have specific projects that require subject-matter expertise or simply a backlog of tasks that forever seem to remain on the back burner, LexLocom can provide experienced counsel on a temporary or part-time basis at very competitive rates. And, because LexLocom draws from such a vast pool of talent, we can tailor each project by providing the right lawyers with the right expertise. Each lawyer has been vetted through a careful screening process and is generally available with little notice.

  • Confidence in our talent
  • Client demand for cost containment
  • An ability to keep projects internal
  • Rapid response time
  • An ability to free-up resources
  • No time-intensive hiring process
