Executive Assistant for Legal

An EA inside a firm protects partner billable time — running the calendar around court dates and depositions, prepping matter binders, and handling personal logistics for partners who travel to client sites.

Why a Executive Assistant fits Legal

Every Executive Assistant we place in legal works against client confidentiality and conflict-of-interest screening. We solve the day-to-day pain law firms feel most: non-billable admin pulling attorneys off matters. They onboard onto your legal stack (typically Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther) inside the first week, with your SOPs as the source of truth.

What ships in the first 30 days

In the first 30 days, your Executive Assistant for Legal ships the daily inbox triage report (daily) and the weekly calendar plan (weekly), plus the recurring work that defines the role: triage and respond to email on your behalf using your tone of voice, and own your calendar — scheduling, rescheduling, and protecting deep-work blocks. Your account manager runs a weekly review against the role's SOP and the legal-specific checklist so quality is measured, not assumed.
