What does a legal assistant staffing agency do?
A legal assistant staffing agency recruits the support staff who keep filings on time and calendars correct. GlobalCybers places them permanently onto your payroll rather than as temporary desk cover. Worth knowing before you post the role: 'legal assistant' spans two different BLS occupations, legal secretaries and administrative assistants (SOC 43-6012, $55,570 national median) and paralegal-track legal assistants (SOC 23-2011, $62,890), and candidates use the title for both. We clarify which job you are hiring for, then test e-filing and docketing against your courts. RPO at $2,999/mo, or Direct Hire at 12-20% on a successful hire.

Need a permanent legal assistant instead of rotating desk cover?
Temporary legal support learns your filing conventions, your attorneys' preferences and your docket practices right up until the assignment ends. In a role where a mis-calendared date is a malpractice exposure, that turnover is not a cost saving. A permanent hire is a one-time fee and keeps the docket in hands that know it.

Levels We Place
Legal Assistant Levels & Specializations We Place
Credential Verification
Every Licence Verified Before Delivery
Unverified legal assistants never appear on a shortlist. We check directly against the issuing authority, not self-reported documentation.
E-filing and court-rule testing
Filing errors are the failure mode of this role, and they are jurisdictional. We test the actual e-filing systems your matters use, along with deadline calculation and local-rule awareness for your courts, rather than accepting general 'filing experience'.
Docketing and calendaring discipline
Docketing is a risk-management function pretending to be an administrative one. We test calendaring logic, how the candidate handles rule-based date computation, and what they do when a date is ambiguous, which is the moment that separates a good docket clerk from a malpractice claim.
Document management and confidentiality
We record the document-management and billing systems actually used, iManage, NetDocuments, Clio or Elite, and screen for confidentiality discipline and conflicts awareness, since legal support staff see privileged material from day one.
Pricing
Two Models, Same Quality
Direct Hire
Of first-year salary · on successful hire only · no retainer
90-Day Written Guarantee: If a placed legal assistant leaves or is terminated within 90 days, we replace them at no additional cost. Available on both RPO and Direct Hire models.
Employer Value
What an Unfilled Legal Assistant Seat Costs, and How We Cut It
An empty legal assistant seat pushes filing and calendaring onto paralegals and attorneys, which is both expensive and exactly where errors start.
A verified 3-5 shortlist of legal assistants lands within 48 hours of a complete brief, instead of the weeks the seat stays uncovered.
E-filing and docketing are tested against the jurisdictions you actually practise in, so a new assistant files correctly the first week rather than after a missed window.
Pay only when you hire, at 12-20% of first-year salary. RPO is a flat $2,999/month for continuous law & legal hiring, with no per-hire fee.
If a placed legal assistant leaves or is let go within 90 days, we source a replacement free under both models.
