The global legal services market is anticipated to garner US$ 627.12 Billion while expanding at a CAGR of 4.6% during the projected timeframe ranging from 2022 to 2032. The market is estimated to reach US$ 400 Billion in 2022. The rising use of cutting-edge technology in delivering legal services will fuel the industry’s growth in the future years. Strong emphasis on preserving openness in client interactions is also expected to drive market growth. Furthermore, the legal services industry is expected to develop more swiftly as more secure/confidential methods are included into the process.
Moreover, the rise of alternative legal service providers (ALSPs) is a significant market trend. ALSPs are non-traditional, specialty firms that specialize in delivering in-demand legal services such as document review, contract administration, litigation assistance, electronic discovery, contract attorneys and staffing, legal research, and intellectual property management.
They are primarily concerned with the “business of law,” utilizing a combination of legal, business, and technological capabilities to deliver services to both corporations and law firms. ALSPs are increasingly being used by businesses for many regular legal services, and law firms are outsourcing non-revenue producing functions such as project management, business analysis, billing, and spending to ALSPs.
Due to the increasing adoption of regulatory and legal requirements, particularly in India and China, Asia Pacific accounted for a substantial portion of the market in 2020. In India, for example, legal service providers have begun to offer advanced cross-border judicial services to their commercial clients, opening up significant opportunities for growth in the country. On the other hand, the market participants are concentrating their efforts on expanding their customer base and acquiring an edge over its competitors.
