What does a legal staffing agency do?
A legal staffing agency sources, screens, verifies, and presents attorneys, paralegals, and legal support professionals to law firms and in-house departments. GlobalCybers is a permanent-only legal staffing agency, every placement is a full-time, direct hire onto your payroll, not contract review work. We verify each attorney's bar admission, good standing, and disciplinary history with the state bar, confirm NALA Certified Paralegal or NFPA Registered Paralegal credentials with the certifying body, and run conflicts screening before any offer. RPO at $2,999/mo, or Direct Hire at 12–20% of first-year salary on a successful hire only.
Need permanent legal staff instead of rotating contract reviewers?
Here is why permanent placement usually costs less over a matter: a contract-staffing markup is charged on every billable hour for as long as the seat stays open, and every rotation means re-running conflicts, re-papering confidentiality, and re-teaching your matter management and e-billing systems. A permanent, bar-verified hire is a one-time fee, keeps matter knowledge inside the firm, and bills at your rate rather than an agency's.

Roles We Place
13+ Law & Legal Roles, Permanent Placement
Credential Verification
Every Licence & Cert Verified Before Delivery
Unverified candidates never appear on a shortlist. We check directly against the issuing authority, not self-reported documentation.
State Bar Admission & Good Standing
Every attorney's admission is verified with the state bar of each jurisdiction they claim, along with current good standing and any public disciplinary history. Bar admission is the only true licence in legal hiring, and it is jurisdiction-specific, so a candidate admitted in one state is not admitted in the next.
Paralegal Certification: NALA CP & NFPA RP
No US state licenses paralegals, so employers hire on education and voluntary certification. We confirm NALA's Certified Paralegal (CP) and NFPA's Registered Paralegal (RP, via the PACE exam) with the certifying body, and confirm that a claimed paralegal certificate programme is genuinely ABA-approved.
Conflicts & Confidentiality Screening
Prior-matter and prior-client exposure is surfaced before an offer, so a hire does not create a conflict that walls off a matter or a client. Confidentiality and non-solicit obligations from a prior firm are reviewed as part of the same step.
Speciality Verification
Practice-area depth is verified against real matter history, litigation, corporate governance, securities, immigration, or intellectual property, because on SOC 23-2011 the speciality, not the title, is what moves pay from $62,890 to above $101,500.
Background & Reference Screening
County, state, and federal background checks run FCRA-compliant, with adverse-action handling, plus supervising-attorney references taken before any offer.
Right-to-work & E-Verify
Form I-9 completed and E-Verify confirmed before start date, so every legal placement is fully work-authorized.

Employer Value
What an Unfilled Legal Seat Costs, and How We Cut It
An open associate or paralegal seat pushes billable work onto partners and slips discovery deadlines that a court will not move. Here is what the delay costs, and how every GlobalCybers placement removes it.
A verified 3–5 shortlist of bar-admitted or certified candidates lands within 48 hours of a complete brief, instead of the weeks an open seat pushes discovery work up to partner rates.
Bar admission, good standing, and conflicts exposure are checked before you see a profile, so an offer is never withdrawn at the eleventh hour.
Pay only when you hire, at 12–20% of first-year salary. RPO is a flat $2,999/month for continuous legal hiring, with no per-hire fee.
If a placement leaves or is let go within 90 days, we source a replacement free, so one wrong hire does not cost you a litigation calendar.
