Typical support areas

Support that can be scoped to the assignment.

Support may include discrete file tasks, research and writing, regulatory work, or a defined project. The exact role can be tailored to the matter.

A

Defined assignments

File-specific legal support where a firm needs targeted help without expanding permanent headcount.

B

Research and written work

Research support, legal analysis, memoranda, and drafting assistance on complex questions.

C

Environmental and regulatory support

Support for regulated matters, environmental issues and related strategic file work.

D

Project-based collaboration

Scoped matters, team support and practical collaboration aligned with existing workflows.

Working principles

Your firm maintains the relationship. We provide the additional capacity.

Engagements should be practical, well scoped and respectful of the referring firm’s relationship with its client, subject to conflicts, confidentiality, and other applicable professional obligations.

Why firms use additional legal capacity

Support the work without unnecessarily expanding permanent overhead.

External legal support can be useful when a team is at capacity, a matter needs focused research or drafting, or a defined project requires additional ownership for a limited period.

Peak Workload

Add capacity during a demanding period without treating a short-term workload issue like a permanent staffing decision.

Focused Assignments

Scope research, drafting or document-review work clearly so the internal team can stay focused on the broader file strategy.

Defined Projects

Bring in support for a project, regulatory issue or discrete matter where roles, timing, and deliverables can be established in advance.

Professional-responsibility note: all professional-support engagements remain subject to conflicts, confidentiality, retainer structure, supervision, billing, and other applicable professional obligations.
