Thoughts on outsourcing discovery? I’m a Florida Paralegal (currently in ID) tossing around the idea of starting my own discovery company. My concept would be to assist firms as a consultant/contractor with their discovery.

I’ve seen some firms outsource this already, personally I like the idea. I work at an Am Law 50 in Florida and would be game to start something like this. I was was thinking of this along with pre-litigation claims analysis work, maybe with internal investigations and compliance work too which is one of my specialities (although I think most companies would want a big name behind that kind of work).

Why not just be a contract paralegal? Then you are available to other things than just discovery.

What do you mean by discovery?

Drafting responses? i don’t think this can be ethically contracted out.

Document Review and production? The market is saturated and really what you need here is a tech background and infrastructure in place.

Hi Everyone,
I need your views and suggestions. I have two doubts:
1. Is it fair to leave an organisation (big brand) after a year as the environment is real toxic and there’s no career growth as well in terms of good work.
2. If I have to make a switch do I really have to target big brands only or can try for medium and small size companies too.
