A mid-sized law firm in Chicago, specializing in corporate law, decided to evaluate the benefits of hiring 5 virtual paralegals rather than a traditional in-house paralegal. The firm was facing challenges related to overhead costs, office space requirements, and the need for flexibility in staffing. They had a significant caseload, but needed to streamline operations without sacrificing the quality of work.
Goals & Objectives
Our case study determined the cost savings and efficiency improvements associated with hiring a virtual paralegal for U.S. Law Firms. The firm compared the financial impact of employing a virtual paralegal versus a full-time, in-house paralegal.

Summary Savings
We assembled a state-of-the-art support system for our client, resulting in annual savings exceeding $271,000. With the addition of 5 new paralegals, our client was able to manage an additional caseload of more than 300 cases, which in turn led to an incremental increase of $1 Million in added revenue.
Legal Soft's Pre-Vetted Talent Pool of U.S. Law Experienced Professionals helped our client reduce the amount of time needed to scale their paralegals to full capacity by over 80%.
As a result of their ongoing success in augmenting their in-house staff with virtual staff, our client explored adding additional roles, such as remote attorneys and intake specialists, to handle their growing caseload.
