Virtual Paralegals with Julia Taylor

In this episode, Alay and Julia discuss: 

  • The benefits of fractional and virtual paralegal services. 
  • The value add of bringing on a paralegal.
  • Having a vetting process in place during the hiring process. 

 

Key Takeaways: 

  • Paralegal duties can vary from law firm to law firm which makes it difficult to hire. 
  • While there may be some need for a paralegal in the office on occasion, most work can be done remotely.
  • It only takes about 10 hours of work each week (or even less) for a paralegal to pay for themselves.
  • If you’re frustrated and need help financially, you could find value in outsourcing a paralegal to get the immediate help that you need.

Tweetable Moments:

  • “The word paralegal is used so loosely, and there’s not a clear definition of it.” —  Julia Taylor
  • “It’s completely possible to run a successful practice without having to have a warm body in a seat every day.” —  Julia Taylor
  • “Sometimes people don’t realize, especially if you do billable work, how much of a value add a paralegal can be.” —  Julia Taylor
  • “The paralegal, while it’s an expense, it’s a money maker.” —  Julia Taylor
