Virtual legal secretary




If you landed on this page looking for a virtual legal secretary then I will redirect you to the find a virtual assistant page
A virtual legal secretary is a perfect niche you can specialise in, in your virtual assistant business.

There are so many practices out there that are better off outsourcing their work to a home based legal secretarial service, especially small ones. They don't need office space or equipment, they just outsource the work. I'm sure there are a few in your suburb or town you can begin to contact.

Obviously there is just so much legal transcription work that can and is being outsourced to home based independent contractors these days. The work either comes straight from law firms or from transcription companies. You name it, every form of legal transcription in every area of law is being outsourced.

You may be working in a legal practice now and can talk your employer around to contracting the work out to you instead in your home based independent contractor business. I suggest you put together a cost and benefit proposal to them and include as much detail as possible. My own sister did this and now works for her 'old' law firm two days a week as a contractor and the rest of the time she has other clients and a transcription company she works with.

Law firms should really think about it, either they lose a person with so much knowledge or retain that knowledge and 'sucumb' to the vast benefits of outsourcing to a legal secretarial service.
