Virtual Paralegals and Legal Secretaries I Equivity

Managing a law practice requires hard work, dedication and long hours. If you’re a solo practitioner or a partner in a growing firm, you may be dedicating too much time to issues that can be handled by a skilled support team.

Equivity gives you the opportunity to work one-on-one with an experienced, US-based, college-educated paralegal or legal secretary. Your assistant works with you over time, learning the ins and outs of your practice and how you like your matters handled.

Our virtual paralegals and legal secretaries are experienced in a wide variety of specialties including litigation, family law, personal injury, corporate, criminal, estate planning and much more. Delegate your administrative projects to your Equivity virtual paralegal or legal secretary so you can refocus on growing your practice.

Why Equivity?

AFFORDABLE ALTERNATIVE

Our virtual paralegals and legal secretaries are affordable alternatives to hiring on-site legal support. All virtual professionals are Equivity employees, not independent contractors. You have the accountability, privacy and security assurances that come with a dedicated employee, while avoiding payroll, workers' compensation, benefits and recruiting costs. If your needs change or your assistant isn't the right match, we'll set you up with a different assistant. No hassle. No stress.

A dedicated virtual paralegal or legal secretary can act as a shared resource for the whole team. Deploy paralegals and legal secretaries across multiple offices and practices as a firm-wide solution. There's no limit to how many team members can use the service.

FLEXIBLE PLANS. SUPPORT ON DEMAND.

Equivity offers a wide range of scalable plans so that you can increase your hours as your practice grows and the need arises. Slower month? No problem. If your workload increases, we can provide additional assistants at no extra charge. Increase or decrease your hours as needed.
