Exhibit 99.1

LECG Transitions Parts of Forensic Accounting Practice Group to FTI

Devon, PA (March 10, 2011) Professional services firm LECG Corporation (Nasdaq: XPRT) announced today that it has transitioned its San Francisco forensic accounting practice to FTI Consulting, Inc.  The transition involves approximately 25 employees.  Terms were not disclosed.

With the advice of its restructuring advisors, LECG continues to negotiate the transition of all practice groups remaining after today’s transaction and transactions disclosed in previous public communications.  LECG will use the proceeds from all practice group transitions to repay the $27.8 million in principal outstanding under its credit facility.  The company will use the balance of any proceeds to make payments to other creditors.  Contractually, if there is any remaining value available to equity holders, it would be first allocated to the company’s outstanding preferred stock.  The company believes that the transitions and these transactions will not result in any proceeds for the common shareholders.
