MKC Paralegal Services
Outsourcing a portion of your paralegal tasks will save valuable attorney time in addition to saving money. However, when the workload is lighter and trials are not as demanding, you are not paying an annual salary for someone to be in the office each day.

Disclaimer
MKC Paralegal Services is not a law firm, nor am I an attorney – MKC Paralegal Services provides freelance paralegal services to attorneys in good standing with their state’s bar association only. MKC Paralegal Services does not work with the general public, give legal advice, or supply legal forms to non-attorneys. However, you may request that your attorney contact me to assist with your case.
I abstain from the Unauthorized Practice of Law as many jurisdictions only allow paralegals to work under direct supervision of an attorney.

The Freelance Paralegal
​
A freelance paralegal, sometimes referred to as a virtual paralegal, is a paralegal who works as an independent contractor providing substantive legal support to attorneys, firms, corporations, or governmental agencies on an as-needed basis. Depending on the attorney’s need, a freelance paralegal may provide paralegal support services occasionally – only when the need arises – or regularly – providing daily or weekly support. As independent contractors, freelance paralegals are business owners providing paralegal support services to attorneys who have contracted with them for support. These support services are generally provided from the freelance paralegal’s office or place of business, although some freelance paralegals do occasionally provide on-site support to their local clients.
