The Insourcing Revolution Is Here. And It’s Bigger Than Anyone Expected.

In-house teams have more agency than they’ve had in a decade. Axiom’s 2027 budget study shows the work arriving faster than the budget to hold it.

For years, legal departments drew a circle around what they did and what they outsourced to law firms.

What remained inside the circle? A relatively small fraction of the in-house team’s total workload.

Now the in-house circle is expanding, catalyzed by AI driving an insourcing revolution.

Here, Sara Morgan, Axiom’s chief legal AI and talent officer, shares select findings from Axiom’s 2027 In-House Legal Budget Study.

● How to distinguish between ‘possible’ and ‘sustainable’ workloads
● The ‘two numbers that shouldn’t coexist’ in the Axiom data
● Why AI adoption must focus on the operating model — not just the work backlog
