Law Firm Administration with Julia Taylor

16 minutes

In this episode, Alay and Julia discuss:

Why a virtual law firm administrator can help your firm.

Limitations of virtual law firm staff and paralegals.

When to add someone to your team.

Key Takeaways:

Law firm administrators can help with tasks that aren’t necessarily billable but are revenue-generating like case management, newsletters, marketing, billing, and more.

If your firm is relying on paper, it will take longer to get up to speed quickly with a virtual administrator or paralegal.

Having a fractional COO can turn into a long-term partnership as you grow.

Tweetable Moments:

“While we don’t call it online business manager, we term it virtual firm administrator or fractional COO so that it resonates with our law firms.” — Julia Taylor

“There are a lot of things that could be done remotely for firms that I’m handling myself. Where there’s a will, there’s certainly a way.” — Julia Taylor

“A really good firm administrator is a six-figure position, and so that prices out a lot of law firms from being able to have that back office support they need. We’re able to give that to our firms on a subscription basis.” — Julia Taylor
