How I work with attorneys

3P Legal is a paralegal services practice. All work product is delivered to the supervising attorney for review and adoption. I do not provide legal advice to clients, set legal fees, sign legal documents on behalf of a firm, or represent clients independently. Engagements are structured to keep the attorney’s professional responsibility obligations clean.

Litigation is the core.

My deepest experience is in civil litigation. I support adjacent practice areas where the document-heavy workflow is similar.

Civil litigation

Discovery, depositions, motion practice, exhibit organization, trial prep. Primary focus.

Personal injury

Medical chronologies, demand support, records review, and file management.

Family law

Discovery and document support for contested family matters with active timelines.

Employment

Case organization, records review, drafting assistance, and research support.

Business disputes

Commercial litigation support, contracts review, and document organization.

Probate & estate

Document-heavy administration support for files requiring steady coordination.

Criminal support

Research, file organization, and discovery review under attorney direction.

Custom workflows

If your team has a repeatable process, I can probably support it.

Engagement models

Flexible support instead of a one-size-fits-all retainer.

Project-based

Hourly by scope

Best for defined assignments, overflow work, or cleanup projects.

  • One-time document review projects
  • Drafting and summary work

Surge capacity

Hourly short-term

Best when your team is slammed and needs quick relief without adding staff.

  • Short-term overflow help
  • Backlog and file triage
  • Trial-prep or seasonal spikes
Talk through a workload spike

Hourly rates are quoted during the intro conversation based on volume, complexity, and whether the engagement is one-time or ongoing. No retainer required.

Frequently asked

Questions a serious buyer is likely to ask first.

How quickly can you ramp on a new matter?

Depending on complexity, I can start contributing within a few business days. For a single-matter engagement, the intake call, scoping, and engagement letter typically wrap up inside a week.

Are you familiar with Maryland-specific systems?

Yes — including MDEC e-filing, Maryland Judiciary Case Search, and the procedural rhythm of the state circuit and district courts.

Do you sign engagement letters with the firm directly?

Yes. Every engagement runs through a written agreement that defines scope, hourly rate, confidentiality, and the supervising attorney relationship.

What’s your billing model?

Hourly, billed in 6-minute increments, invoiced on a regular cycle. No retainer. No minimum commitment for project-based work.

Will my client information stay confidential?

Yes. NDAs are welcomed for any engagement, and confidentiality terms are included in the standard engagement letter.

Can you adapt to existing systems?

That’s the goal. I work in your case management system, your filing conventions, and your communication rhythm rather than asking you to adopt mine.

We can figure out the right fit in one conversation.

Start with the type of support you need most and we’ll scope the right engagement structure.
