Our Services are Your Benefits
There are a number of ways in which our services can benefit you and your clients:
TIME: Time is your most valuable resource. Unfortunately, there is often not enough time in the day to complete all of the in-depth legal research or comprehensive legal writing that your caseload requires. Having us perform your legal research and writing projects will give you the time you need to actively manage all the other aspects of your clients' matters without having to hire an associate or face time pressures that lead to attorney burnout.
PROFIT: The ABA has determined that an attorney may charge the client a premium reasonable measure of profit in excess of the research and writing provider's cost to the attorney, so long as the total charges to the client are reasonable. See ABA Formal Op. 88-356.
Of Counsel Offers . . .
* In-depth legal research
* Concise, well-reasoned legal writing
* Cost-effective services
* Increased time efficiency
* Highest ethical standards
COST-EFFECTIVENESS: We bill at a hourly rate that is generally less than your own hourly rate. Also, because legal research and writing is all that we do, we can generally perform these tasks in less time than the average attorney. For both of these reasons, your legal research and writing needs are taken care of with less cost than you could do by yourself. Even if you add a reasonable measure of profit to your cost of our services, the charges to your client will still likely be less than had you done the research and writing on your own.
TIMELINESS: Deadlines are ever present and unforgiving in the practice of law. Failing to meet a deadline can be disastrous to your case. You can be rest assured that we will get your project done on time, every time.
SUCCESS: The most important thing to your client is the ultimate result of his or her case. Knowing the right black letter law and understanding how that law applies to your unique set of facts is crucial to every aspect of your case. When you are faced with a motion, appeal or simply deciding whether to take on a case, you need to know how the law applies to your facts. In fact, a well-written brief, based upon quality legal research, can be the difference between winning and losing a case. Since we have dedicated our professional careers to legal research and writing, you can be assured that your clients' matters will be researched thoroughly and explained persuasively through expertly written briefs and memoranda, which will ensure the best results for you and your clients.
