We trusted There is Talent enough to bring one of our assistants in-house, and when we needed another assistant, we went straight back to them.
We've been so impressed with the legal virtual assistants There is Talent provided that we've recommended their services to other law firms. We now have four legal virtual assistants through There is Talent, and our first legal VA has been working with us for more than three years.
There is Talent has become a trusted staffing partner for our firm. They consistently prioritize our needs and ensure we have the staff required to succeed. We now work with more than 10 of their virtual assistants and truly value the hard work and dedication they bring to our team.
The San Diego firm brought on one There Is Talent VA to handle intake calls and lead qualification. Two years later, he was supervising other VAs and working directly with the partners, while the firm's lead volume grew fourfold.
A virtual legal assistant is a remote professional who handles a law firm's administrative and case-support work — client intake, document preparation, calendar and deadline tracking, billing, and legal research — under the supervising attorney's direction. Unlike a general virtual assistant, they're trained on legal software (Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther) and legal terminology, and work within the confidentiality standards a law firm requires.
Virtual assistants help with client intake, document drafting, calendar management, billing, legal research, and other administrative and case support tasks based on your firm's needs.
Yes. We prioritize candidates who can align with your business hours, ensuring seamless communication and real-time collaboration.
Absolutely. You'll work with a dedicated legal virtual assistant focused on your firm, allowing them to learn your processes and provide consistent support.
Our legal assistants have experience with platforms such as Clio, MyCase, Filevine, PracticePanther, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and other commonly used legal software.
Yes. Confidentiality is a priority. Our professionals follow established security protocols and work under the standards and requirements defined by your firm.
Yes. ABA Formal Opinion 08-451 confirms that law firms may outsource legal support work, including offshore, as long as the supervising attorney maintains responsibility for the work product, protects client confidentiality, and discloses the arrangement to the client when the work is material to the representation.
No, as long as the rule is followed correctly. ABA Model Rule 5.3 requires attorneys to supervise nonlawyer assistants regardless of location — remote work doesn't change accountability. The attorney remains responsible for the assistant's conduct and must review their work before it reaches clients or courts.
By delegating administrative and support tasks, attorneys and legal staff can spend more time on billable work, client relationships, and case strategy.
We’ll replace them quickly and at no extra cost to ensure you always have the right professional supporting your team.
Most clients, especially small law firms, get matched and start working in approximately 5 days.
A full-time legal virtual assistant with There Is Talent costs $2,199 per month on the Legal Assistant plan, or $2,499 per month on the Senior Legal VA plan, which adds ownership of complex document workflows, proactive deadline tracking and higher-level quality control. Every plan includes a dedicated Success Manager and a replacement at no extra cost if the fit isn't right.
In most cases, a one-line disclosure in your engagement letter is sufficient, and this is standard best practice under ABA guidance. Disclosure is typically required when the outsourced work is substantive (e.g., drafting or case research) rather than purely clerical. Check your specific state bar's guidance for confirmation.
We provide a seamless integration into your legal workflow. Your Legal VA adheres to your internal communication standards, task flow, and tools, serving as a real extension of your team. After onboarding, your VA follows your internal communication standards, task flow, and tools (email, Google Workspace, Clio/MyCase, CRMs, task boards, etc.). We help define clear responsibilities, handoffs, and reporting cadence so your attorney and staff stay focused while your VA keeps execution moving consistently.
A remote assistant supports operations by handling admin-heavy, process-driven tasks. An in-house paralegal is typically more involved in direct legal functions that may require deeper training under attorney supervision.
Let us match your firm with the right Legal VA to manage contracts, clients, and case documentation efficiently so you can focus on winning cases, not paperwork.
