A Journey Through Legal Expertise
Liliya Lanza brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the conversation, sharing her fascinating journey through the legal landscape. With an educational background that includes international legal studies and an LLM from Berkeley, Liliya has cultivated a diverse skill set that encompasses contract management, litigation e-discovery, compliance and data privacy.

Throughout the episode, Liliya articulates how ALSPs are revolutionizing the delivery of legal services by offering cost-effective, flexible and scalable solutions that seamlessly complement traditional law firms and in-house legal teams. This innovative approach allows organizations to access high-quality legal support without the constraints often associated with conventional legal practices.
The Benefits of ALSPs
Chad and Liliya engage in a detailed exploration of the key benefits that ALSPs provide. One of the standout advantages is the access to subject matter expertise that ALSPs offer. With professionals specializing in various legal disciplines, clients can tap into a vast pool of knowledge that enhances the quality of legal services received.
Additionally, the integration of innovative technology plays a pivotal role in the success of ALSPs. Protiviti partners with leading technology providers such as Microsoft, Relativity and Reveal to deliver customized solutions tailored to meet client needs. Liliya emphasizes how this technology integration is not just about adopting new software; it’s about optimizing existing client technology with proprietary workflows and plug-ins that enhance operational efficiency.
Scalability and Cost Efficiency
One of the most compelling aspects of ALSPs is their ability to provide scalable legal support. As organizations face fluctuating demands for legal services, Protiviti’s model allows clients to scale their legal resources up or down as needed. This adaptability ensures that clients receive the right level of support without incurring unnecessary costs.
Chad and Liliya discuss how Protiviti’s affiliation with Robert Half further enhances its capabilities. This partnership enables Protiviti to deliver tailored solutions at competitive rates, allowing clients to benefit from high-level subject matter expertise alongside cost-efficient contract resources. The combination of these elements positions Protiviti as a trusted partner in the legal landscape.
Collaboration in the Legal Ecosystem
The episode also highlights the growing collaboration between law firms, corporate legal departments and ALSPs. Liliya discusses how law firms are increasingly recognizing the value of partnering with providers like Protiviti to extend their service offerings. By collaborating with ALSPs, law firms can improve their operational efficiency and respond more effectively to client demands for cost-effective legal services.

By integrating various technologies, Protiviti can create tailored solutions that enhance performance while avoiding the pitfalls of unnecessary software purchases.
