A UpCounsel Case Study
FinancialForce, a global software company developing cloud back-office applications, faced a challenge when its General Counsel, John Moss, needed to handle overflow legal projects. As the sole in-house attorney, he sought high-quality, results-focused legal assistance but wanted to avoid the high costs, complexity, and lengthy timelines associated with traditional large law firms. He turned to UpCounsel to find the right attorney efficiently.
UpCounsel provided a streamlined solution, enabling Moss to quickly find and hire a highly qualified attorney based on reviews and relevant experience. This UpCounsel attorney delivered high-quality, results-focused work that met his exact specifications. The results were significant: project completion was twice as fast, and FinancialForce saved an estimated 66% in costs compared to using a traditional law firm. Due to this success, FinancialForce has used UpCounsel for multiple large legal projects over three years.
