LOS ANGELES, December 7 - Integreon, the global leader in integrated knowledge process outsourcing
(KPO) and legal process outsourcing (LPO), today announced the appointment of
legal outsourcing industry thought leader Mark Ross to the position of vice
president of legal services. Mr. Ross joins a team of other leading LPO
experts at Integreon who routinely advise major law firms and corporations on
legal outsourcing solutions aimed at reducing both internal and external
legal costs while improving operational efficiencies. Ross' responsibilities
include working closely with Integreon's sales, marketing, and delivery teams
to address the company's growing client demand for LPO solutions.

Ross, a U.K. qualified solicitor and former partner at legal outsourcing
pioneer Underwoods Solicitors, boasts six years of experience in the legal
outsourcing field. Prior to joining Integreon, he served as the vice
president of global sales and marketing at LawScribe. His involvement in
legal outsourcing dates to January 2004 when Underwoods became the first U.K.
law firm to outsource legal work offshore. He was then responsible for the
development of the workflow system for outsourcing litigation matters to the
firm's South Africa offices.

"Mark is a recognized LPO thought leader and authority. We are delighted
that he will now apply his deep domain expertise to assist Integreon's
clients," said Liam Brown, Integreon's chief executive officer. "Mark has a
clear understanding and vision of the future for the legal profession and how
leading law firms and corporate legal departments can use outsourcing to
transform their businesses."

Ross is the former Chair of the International Association of Outsourcing
Professionals' (IAOP) Legal Outsourcing Chapter. He has been invited on
multiple occasions to speak at conferences as an authority on legal
outsourcing by such organizations as U.C. Berkeley School of Law, The
Financial Times, Association of Legal Administrators and IAOP. He has been
interviewed and published in both mainstream and legal publications,
including TIME magazine, the UK Law Society Gazette and the American Bar
Association. He also developed the industry's first U.S. State Bar accredited
MCLE course, offered by a legal outsourcing services provider, regarding the
ethical issues associated with offshore legal outsourcing.

As a widely recognized industry thought leader, Ross will continue
writing articles and blog posts, hosting webinars and speaking at conferences
to evangelize the benefits of legal outsourcing. Based in Los Angeles, he
will report to John Croft, Integreon's president of global sales.

Great news! I mean, people with such experience in both legal-aid and outsourcing, it’s just wonderful to hear so much about it… kpo is doing just as great as that.

It is a very interesting thing to know that even Legal stuff can be outsourced.
