With
companies from non-English speaking countries
such as South Korea, China, and Japan requiring
to file patents in the US and European courts
to expand business opportunities, legal process
outsourcing companies (LPOs) here have set their
eyes on the markets in these regions.
"The US and the UK constitute
a major chunk of our business. However, we are
expecting to rope in more clients from Japan,
South Korea, China, Malaysia.
"We expect our revenues
from the new countries to increase by 20 per cent
in the next one year," said Mr Sanjay Kamlani,
CEO, Pangea 3. Similarly, Integreon, a Mumbai-based
legal outsourcing firm, is also spreading wings
in the non-English speaking market.
Hiring Indian
lawyers
Mr Balwant Rawat, Head, Intellectual
Property Division at Evalueserve explains, "Since
to engage US lawyers for the entire process is
expensive, many would look to hiring Indian lawyers
for it." In the IP domain, business from
these countries is expected to double over the
next two years.
