Legal work of Holywood movies from Mysore

Bangalore, Jun 14 (UNI) SDD Global Solutions, the only legal process outsourcing company in India managed by a US law firm, today announced that it was providing highend legal work to major Hollywood movie studios and television companies, on everything from blockbusters to television shows.

Head quartered in Mysore, the Company was supported by rapidly growing staff of Indian lawyers, SDS global solutions said in a release here.

Chairman of SDD Global Solutions Pvt Ltd, Russell Smith, dubbed as "The Maharaja of Media" by The American Lawyer, said in the release ''nearly all of the legal work for 'Borat,' the most financially successful comedy film of all time, was done from Mysore''. Similarly the award-winning film, 'Death of a President', featuring the fictional assassination of U.S. President Bush, could not have been released, without the rapid, expert, and low-cost legal assistance that SDD Global provided, he added.

SDD Global Solutions is helping get insurance for Al Pacino's next film, and doing the legal groundwork for a new reality TV series about rookie cops. ''There is business coming in to SDD Global where we will be doing work on a major new motion picture from Universal Pictures. Another large Hollywood studio has asked us to handle thousands of U.S. immigration visas for its actors and directors'' he said adding ''Our clients are happy to have their legal work done in the most cost-effective and efficient location in the world right now, which is our office in Mysore''.

The Company's employees also help prepare legal roadmaps to help film and television producers avoid trouble and obtain needed insurance. With the influx of clients, SDD Global last month moved to its own 330-employee building in Mysore and was looking to hire over 200 recruits within the next 12 months.
