Benefits of working with ValistiQ

Ad Hoc Service

Each procurement process is exclusively adapted to your particular needs, considering every minor detail. We follow your instructions on the profile of law firm or service provider you wish to engage with, ensuring that selected candidates have proved expertise on the specific matter. In this regard, you may ask us to request proposals from:

  • Multinational, local, Big4, large, medium, small or boutique firms.
  • Firms offering cost-effective services or flexible pricing structures.
  • Firms that provide an excellent client experience (i.e., agility, full availability, and fluid communications).
  • Local firms founded by professionals coming from top tier multinational firms.
  • Firms that have partners that are truly involved in the matter or that speak your language fluently.
  • Firms that have a strong network of contacts in a particular sector or that are members of any sector-related association.
  • Firms with teams that have been highly rated by our clients.
  • Any other characteristic that is important for you.

Moreover, you may request us to invite a firm of your preference or that someone has recommended, so it can participate in the tender process and compete with other candidates.

Time Savings

We invest our time and resources in interviewing and selecting trustful firms that meet your criteria and bringing them to compete for you. We coordinate the process from end to end and provide you with a concise report comparing all proposals according to objective criteria previously agreed with you. Without spending time in administrative tasks, you receive all the benefits of a professional procurement process that is coordinated by former lawyers.  

 

Budget Savings & Increased Quality Services
As a result of a strict and healthy competition process and centralized requests, you will receive excellent proposals (scope-price-client experience) from proved experts. We negotiate on your behalf to ensure the best conditions.
Accurate Expenditure Forecast
We do not accept proposals that do not allow to foresee the total cost of the service, or which do not reflect clearly what is included in the offer. We bring firms to quote under fixed fee or maximum cap structures. Moreover, we ensure law firms indicate additional expenses or disbursements so you can take them into account.
Increased Compliance

Increase the transparency of your procurement processes by outsourcing them to a third independent party that acting as an impartial arbitrator ensures a fair competition and equal opportunities for all candidates.

Furthermore, we provide you with a report containing detailed information on the firms, their proposed teams, client credentials, pricing, KPIs and any other element that is relevant for you, so you can easily compare proposals from all standpoints. Our clients find these comparison reports very valuable for justifying their procurement decisions before their internal audit team, the Board, or their Holding company.

Risk Reduction & Ensured expertise
Those proposals you receive will only be coming from trustful firms that are proved experts in the matter and in their jurisdiction. We interview with preselected firms to ensure their experience and request their credentials of working on similar matters for similar clients. Moreover, we have a privileged position to observe firsthand how firms work and thus select those that consistently perform at a high level.
Improved Client Experience
We believe that law firms and other services providers should also work hard on providing an outstanding client experience. Therefore, we request firms to include KPIs/SLAs and commitments regarding availability, response times, recurring follow up meetings, detailed and transparent invoicing, single point of contacts, use of technology, timeline accuracy, communication streams, or any other that is important for you.
Double Filter for Quality

Law firms and service providers will work hard for you as a new client but also for ValistiQ, as they are aware that if the level of the service provided is below what is expected, ValistiQ will not invite them to future tenders. Therefore, thanks to centralizing requests, they will put greater effort and attention to ensure your success and satisfaction.

One Single Dedicated Team

No matter the country, you will always work with the same team, that will get to learn your preferences, internal policies, and business particularities. We will do all the work, so you simply receive all proposals, decide and attend the introductory calls or meetings we will schedule for you.

Follow up & Continuous Support
We remain at your service during the entire relationship with the firm you decide to engage, and we send you regular satisfaction surveys so you can let us know if the firm is performing as agreed.

What our clients say about us

ValistiQ’s services are similar to those rendered by Headhunters, but in a much more innovative and professionalized way. They quickly select candidate firms that match our criteria and present their proposals in a clear and visual manner which is very useful for us. I guess they could be defined as “Law Firm Hunters” or “Legal Brokers”, but in my opinion, they are much more than that”.

 

Global Head of Legal of a Real Estate Company

“When looking for legal services abroad we typically worked with multinational law firms where a partner from our country put us in touch with a partner from another office. However, this implied high prices and frequently unnecessary extra costs for coordination fees. Thanks to ValistiQ we easily get in touch with the best local firms in each country, receive several proposals and avoid any additional costs for this. I am a true fan of their business model.”

GC of a Healthcare company

“Thank you ValistiQ and special mention for its team, for the efforts and excellent job done. It is always a pleasure to work with such high-quality standards, in line with our company’s policy.”

Head of Legal of an Agro-Tech Multinational Company
“What I personally most value about ValistiQ is how they get into the detail, those minor aspects that are crucial for us. The way they reflect them in their tender documents and how they translate all our needs to the different law firms is simply what makes the difference.”

Head of Legal of a multinational company developing renewable energy plants
“I would like to highlight the great job done by ValistiQ, taking into account that we had a short period of time to coordinate local proposals in 6 different countries.”

Head of Tax of a leading multinational corporation

Corporate Legal Director, world leading company in the construction and operation of renewable energy plants

General Counsel of a company producing plant protection products
“Despite we outsourced with ValistiQ most of our procurement processes abroad, we have experienced how much value their team brings when searching for law firms in our own country. We have reduced our average legal spend considerably and are working with a top tier firm under excellent conditions, delegating all communications in ValistiQ”.

General Counsel of a leading tourism group
“One of the best cost-reduction strategies our company has undertaken this year, has been hiring ValistiQ for reconfiguring our legal panel in several countries. Its strong impact in our expenditure has been welcomed by all our senior management in such an uncertain year”.
