Added Annualized Revenue

Our client, an Employment Law Firm in New York, hired 3 Remote Attorneys to handle an uptick in caseload. Legal Soft's pre-vetted remote attorneys with U.S. law experience were able to draft pleadings, agreements, and motions as well as prepare court documents and filings for on-staff attorneys. The client was also keen on their ability to draft contracts, advise on compliance issues, and directly communicate with their clients when the need arose. Ultimately, our client was able to increase revenue by maximizing their billable hours per client.
