The Legal Ecosystem
An ecosystem is a system formed by the interaction of a community of organisms with their environment. In nature, all producer organisms and all consumer organisms alike play an integral and ultimately equivalent role in balancing the flow of energy and resources towards a sustainable equilibrium point.
Pressures on each organism to preserve their individual status quo against evermore counter-pressures tend to ripple out and affect other organisms in the community, thereby affecting the ecosystem as a whole in an endless cycle of action/reaction. Organisms that thrive within their own interdependent niche in the ecosystem—while allowing other organisms in the ecosystem to thrive as well—help to balance the ecosystem at large for the greater good of all.
In the legal environment, it’s not difficult to see that the interaction of clients, the courts, corporations, business units, law firms, LPO providers and outsourced staffing resources also form a kind of ecosystem—a Legal Ecosystem. As bottom-line pressures affect a corporation’s or law firm’s ability to maintain highest quality in largest quantity in the work they perform, the opportunity is created for (and the responsibility of) other organisms in the Legal Ecosystem to absorb this pressure and ensure a sustainable cycle of viable resources.
