Hiring great resources as VAs, paralegals and office staff can transform your law firm’s productivity, profitability, and your work-life balance. In this game-changing episode I am joined by Raquel Gomes, the founder of Stafi, a unique staffing solution tailored specifically for small and mid-sized law firms. Raquel shares her journey from corporate America to entrepreneurship and explains how Stafi is solving the critical hiring and delegation challenges law firms face today. Stafi’s model provides firms with skilled, vetted paralegals and support staff, predominantly from Latin America, enabling lawyers to save on costs and increase efficiency by delegating routine tasks. Raquel and I discuss how outsourcing certain functions—like intake, marketing, and paralegal work—can free up time for law firm owners to focus on higher-value tasks and enjoy a better work-life balance. Stafi goes beyond traditional staffing with extensive coaching and support systems for virtual staff, ensuring quality performance and alignment with firm culture. Raquel also shares her passion for helping law firm owners reclaim their time and find more joy in their work by incorporating effective delegation strategies and creating robust support systems.
Discover how streamlining client communication can transform your law firm’s success. I had the pleasure of speaking with Andy Seavers, co-founder and CEO of Case Status. Andy and I delved into the critical role that client communication plays in the legal industry and how Case Status is transforming client engagement for law firms. Andy shared how their platform helps law firms address one of the biggest pain points in legal services: the lack of proactive client updates. With tools like automated updates, case tracking, and client satisfaction scoring, Case Status ensures that clients stay informed and satisfied throughout their case, which in turn boosts client retention and firm efficiency. As we discussed, law firms face increased pressure to maintain high levels of client satisfaction, especially with the rise of online reviews and competitive markets. Andy explained how Case Status not only streamlines client communication but also integrates seamlessly with case management software to deliver proactive updates and help law firms track client satisfaction. The result? Improved client experiences, higher case settlements, and a stronger reputation in the legal marketplace.
