A full-time legal assistant who handles intake, keeps the case calendar, prepares documents and tracks billing, inside your practice management software and your hours.
Today’s work
A legal assistant supports attorneys and paralegals with the administrative side of a practice: client intake, calendaring, document preparation, filing and billing.
Takes new inquiries, collects client details and documents, and opens matters in your practice management system.
Keeps hearings, deadlines and appointments on the calendar, and sends reminders to attorneys and clients.
Formats letters, pleadings and contracts from your templates, for attorney review before anything goes out.
Organizes correspondence, evidence and records so every matter file is complete and easy to find.
Enters time, prepares invoices for attorney review, and follows up on unpaid client balances.
Answers routine client calls and emails, confirms appointments, and passes legal questions to the right attorney.

Every candidate is checked against the work, your tools and your hours. You only interview the people who pass.
We review the legal support work each candidate has actually done: intake, calendaring, document preparation, filing and billing.
Tell us your stack and we shortlist people who have worked in it, from Clio and MyCase to PracticePanther.
Legal assistants write to clients and answer their calls, so we screen written and spoken English for the role.
We confirm each candidate can work your business hours, so clients reach someone while your office is open.
Every hire passes background and medical checks before day one. They’re part of the process, not an extra.
You meet the candidates who pass, ask your own questions, and choose who joins your team.
No placement fee. No separate hiring charges. Everything you need to get a new hire started on your team is inside the fee.
Illustrative example that updates with the calculator. Your fee depends on the role and experience level; the marketplace shows a monthly range for each candidate.

They handle the administrative work of a legal practice: client intake, keeping the case calendar, preparing documents from your templates, organizing matter files, entering time, and preparing invoices for review.
No. They support your attorneys and paralegals, and anything that needs legal judgment goes to your team. Documents they prepare are reviewed by your attorneys before they go out.
The one you already run. Tell us your stack and we shortlist people who have worked in it, typically Clio, MyCase, or PracticePanther, alongside Microsoft 365, Adobe Acrobat, and DocuSign.
You give them their own login with the permissions you choose, as you would for anyone on your team. They work on equipment we provide, and every hire passes background and medical checks before they start.
Titles vary by firm, but a legal assistant usually handles more of the administration, while a paralegal does more substantive work under attorney supervision. Tell us the duties and we screen for those, whatever the title.
It depends on the role, experience, and skills you’re looking for.
Once we know who you need, we’ll give you the cost upfront. There’s a one-time setup fee per employee, followed by a monthly fee. Businesses typically save 50–70% compared with hiring a similar role in the US with equivalent education, experience or other qualifications.
Remote Employee® is the legal employer. We employ your team member locally in the Philippines and take care of their payroll, taxes, contracts, and compliance. You just pay a set monthly invoice while we take care of the rest.
