Your To-do List Just Got a New Owner

Legal Research & Case Analysis

Our virtual paralegals use Westlaw, LexisNexis, Fastcase, and Casetext to pull case law, shepardize citations, and prepare research memos. Whether it's a federal circuit split, state-specific statutory interpretation, or an administrative regulatory issue, your VA delivers structured, attorney-ready briefs, not raw search results.

Case File Management & Docketing

From opening matters in Clio or MyCase to maintaining digital case files, organizing discovery documents, and tracking statute-of-limitations deadlines in your court calendar, your VA keeps your docket clean and nothing falls through the cracks. Includes Bates numbering, exhibit organization, and deposition scheduling.

Client Intake & Communication

First impressions convert prospects. Your virtual legal assistant manages initial intake calls, completes conflict-of-interest checks, sends engagement letters, and keeps clients informed via email and Lawmatics or Intaker, all under attorney supervision. Never lose a lead to a voicemail again.

Time Entry & Legal Billing

Accurate timekeeping is billable revenue you're currently leaving uncaptured. Your VA enters time in Bill4Time, Smokeball, or TimeSolv; prepares LEDES-format invoices for insurance defense clients; and follows up on outstanding AR, without you touching a single invoice line item.

Virtual Paralegal Services

Need more than admin support? Our trained virtual paralegals assist with document drafting (demand letters, discovery requests, NDAs, retainer agreements), deposition summaries, motion templates formatted per local court rules, and case chronology preparation, all under attorney review and supervision.

Court Calendar & Deadline Management

Missing a deadline is malpractice exposure. Your VA maintains a master docket calendar, sets multi-stage reminder triggers for discovery cutoffs, motion deadlines, and trial prep milestones and sends a daily priority report to your inbox every morning before 9am.
