A New Approach to Campus Legal Services

How universities can reduce their legal costs while improving their legal services.

From Volume 24 Number 4 | Summer 1996

Abstract: The in-house legal office at Stanford, faced with a need to restructure due to impending budget cuts, reduced its staff and outsourced the bulk of its legal services to law firms specializing in such areas as intellectual property, enviromental, or labor issues and willing to work within a fixed budget. Describes the transition and initial phase of the "blended outsourcing," with implications for adapting this approach to other educational support services.
