The Training
Trained in the Law
A bachelor's degree in legal studies, and experience earned inside real matters — criminal and civil, from the first research memorandum to the trial binder. This is a paralegal by trade, not a generalist assistant.
The Standard
Courtroom Standard
Every memorandum, draft, and exhibit set is prepared to be read by the supervising attorney, filed with the court, and relied on — cited, checked, and finished. Work product that arrives ready, not rough.
The Reach
Wherever the Matter Is
Remote by design, for attorneys and teams anywhere — and in person when a matter calls for it: trial preparation, trial days, and on-site support by arrangement.
Services at a Glance
Six disciplines of paralegal support, each performed under the direct supervision of a licensed attorney.
Legal Research
Case law, statutes, and regulations researched and briefed — memoranda that answer the question asked, with authority checked and cited.
Legal Writing & Drafting
Motions, briefs, pleadings, and correspondence drafted in full for the supervising attorney's review and signature.
Trial Preparation
Exhibits, witness files, chronologies, and trial binders assembled to a courtroom standard — and support through the trial itself.
Criminal Case Support
Discovery review, motion support, and case organization for criminal matters, on either side of the courtroom.
Civil Case Support
Pleadings, discovery, and disciplined case management across civil matters, from filing through resolution.
Discovery & Document Support
Document review, organization, indexing, and production support — the file, in order, when it is needed.
In Person, When the Matter Calls for It
Some work belongs in the room: trial preparation at counsel table's reach, trial days, and the final week before them. Remote Legal Assistant supports matters in person by arrangement — the same discipline, at the courthouse door.
The Name on the Desk
Engagements are taken on by a named professional and answered for by him. Research is checked against the source, drafts are read before they are sent, and deadlines are treated as orders of the court — because, so often, they are.
Who I Support
Paralegal support is offered to the profession — attorneys and the teams they lead.
How an Engagement Begins
1. The inquiry
Send the shape of the matter: the support needed, the deadline, and the supervising attorney. Every inquiry is answered personally.
2. Scope & supervision confirmed
The engagement is confirmed in writing before work begins — scope, supervising attorney, timeline, and the rate for the engagement, quoted in writing.
3. The work, delivered
Research, drafts, and files are delivered to the supervising attorney, ready for review, signature, and filing.
Under Supervision, by Design
Every engagement is performed under the direct supervision of a licensed attorney — the supervising attorney directs the work, reviews it, and signs it. Remote Legal Assistant is not a law firm, offers no legal advice, and forms no attorney-client relationship with any end client. Support is provided to attorneys, law firms, corporate legal teams, and government agencies.
A matter that cannot wait?
Emergency and short-notice support is a standing part of this service. Send the inquiry, or call — the deadline is the first fact considered.
