What is a Contract Paralegal?

Simply explained…We are independent contractors who, with a remote location (our homes), support multiple clients (you, the attorney) in variety areas of law.

Why Work with a Contract Paralegal?

As the legal world has been pushed into utilizing technology, attorneys will find that Virtual Paralegal’s can assist with that transition. Our team at KPS have years of experience working virtually, we know all the technology to assist our clients (you, the attorney) and working with Virtual Paralegals allow you to control costs and increase your revenue. No overhead costs, no taxes, no benefits: strictly pay for the hours used.

You hire us! What’s next?

Once you have signed and returned our Retainer Agreement (which specifically lays out the Employer/Contractor relationship status), we will introduce you to your team of experienced paralegals. If needed, we will set you up with a Dropbox file in order for you to share your files with us. If you utilize case management software; such as Clio, MyCase, etc. we can get setup to access your files in that manner as well.

For clients that need sporadic assistance; we allow those clients to simply email us the assignment, case info and any due dates. Depending on the assignment; our turnaround time for simple items are usually 48-72 hours.

Once the assignment is complete, it is sent to the attorney for review. Our experienced freelancers really try to get the assignments completed with accuracy and little to no errors. Of course, if corrections are needed, we will perform those corrections.

KPS invoices its clients on a monthly basis.

Then, we look forward to our continued relationship with you!

How To Make The Process As Smooth As Possible?

One of the most common questions I'm asked by new clients is "When we get started, how can we make this process as smooth as possible?"
