Solutions for Small Law Firms

Aphelion provides solutions for small law firms through its consulting practice and core legal services.

Different law firms have different needs based on their individual business plans. Smaller law firms generally have the following characteristics relevant to whether an offshoring solution is viable or beneficial:

The firm staffs a limited number of in-house employees to handle back office and legal support work, and attorneys may be used to handling certain support tasks on their own.
Without a larger firm's economies of scale, the existing IT infrastructure may be limited and/or the firm may only have limited personnel available to maintain and support its IT infrastructure.
Hourly clients tend to be more rate sensitive, and a significant number of matters may be flat fee or contingency matters.
With the available financial and human resources, the firm cannot realistically consider establishing and managing a subsidiary operation offshore.

Aphelion's management has tailored its offshoring solutions for smaller law firms with four main goals:

Allowing smaller law firms to reduce overhead while minimizing the burden assumed by attorneys to handle certain legal support tasks.
Assisting the smaller law firm's management of costs, especially for flat fee or contingency fee matters.
Enabling smaller law firms to compete for larger matters without having to retain additional full time employees.
Expanding the smaller law firms' use of technology to enhance the level of client service.

Highlights of our tailored solutions for smaller law firms include:

Creating a technology solution specific to the needs of the smaller law firm and its attorneys.
Using the BOT Model to allow the smaller firm to realize legal support savings and new profit generation with core legal services.
Providing additional options for clients with larger matters requiring significant human resources.
Upgrading, supporting, and maintaining the IT infrastructure, including an affordable 24 hour helpdesk solution.
Secure voicemail server integration permitting state of the art voicemail transcription services and electronic delivery to attorneys according to each attorney's individual preferences.

Depending on its specific practice and size, a smaller law firm may also benefit from some of Aphelion's solutions tailored for large law firms and mid-sized law firms.
