Alternative Resourcing

The traditional pyramid-based resourcing model used by law firms for delivering legal work is becoming increasingly outdated and has proven to be inefficient. The NewLaw model, on which Ashurst Advance is built, is to unbundle work into its component tasks and allocate each task to the resourcing layer most appropriately equipped to handle it, based upon their skills, experience and efficiency. Our Alternative Resourcing offering comprises a team of Legal Analysts, including our managed legal services, and a flexible resourcing platform to provide greater flexibility and options to our clients.

Legal Analysts

Our highly trained and flexible team of Legal Analysts, based in Glasgow and Brisbane, drive efficiency for our clients by undertaking recurring, document intensive or process-heavy projects. Our resourcing options also include a managed legal services offering in South Africa that is complementary to our operations in Brisbane and Glasgow and gives us access to a further pool of cost-effective legal resources.

Ashurst Advance Reach

Ashurst Advance Reach is the second limb of our alternative resourcing offering and enables us to source contract lawyers to temporarily augment a practice group legal team or to respond to client secondment needs.
