The pilot

One real matter. Two weeks. The first one is free.

The fastest way to know if this works for your firm is to point it at one real matter and read what comes back. The first one is on me.

What the two weeks look like
Week 1 · build and run
  • I build your firm's operating file: courts, conventions, voice.
  • You pick one matter: a discovery audit or one motion.
  • The system runs. You get a first, reviewable draft.
Week 2 · revise to your standard
  • You mark it up. I revise until it matches your standard.
  • Every finding ties to an exhibit you can check.
  • Whatever I build in those two weeks is yours to keep.
Start the pilot

Send me one file.

One discovery production, or one motion you need built. I will tell you within a day whether it is a clean fit for the pilot, and what you would get back.

I onboard one firm at a time, and take on only a few. When it is full, there is a waitlist.

This builds an email to me. Keep case specifics out of it for now. Nothing is uploaded here.

No client data moves until you send it. I am one named person, reachable, not a portal.
After the pilot, if it earns it

A flat monthly retainer, in three sizes.

Every size runs the same system, the same verification gate, and the same named operator. What grows with the tier is how much of your practice it carries.

Starter
$1,500 / month
Matters run one at a time, through a queue. Send as many as you like. Full pipeline, full gate, revisions included.
Standard
$3,000 / month
Up to three running at once, plus the calendar and deadlines reconciled to the docket, a daily brief on what is moving, and priority turnaround.
Full service
$6,500 / month
The system runs your practice. Your whole active caseload with standing coverage: hearing prep on autopilot, intake and eBPACE/IDCO billing, same-day starts. For firms with multiple attorneys or roughly 25+ open matters.
How a slot works. The unit is a job: one pipeline run on one matter (a single run can emit several deliverables). A job holds a slot only while it is being worked. The moment a draft is back on your desk for review, the slot frees for the next job in line. Queue as much as you want; nothing is turned away, it is only ever next.
Nothing is metered inside a tier: no per-document charges, revisions included. Every job gets a committed delivery date when it enters the queue. Move between sizes or descope any time, no rip-out. Trial support is priced separately at any tier.
Founding rate, first two firms: Starter $1,000, Standard $2,500, locked for 12 months.
Not sure which size fits? That is what the pilot is for.
For scale: a full-time California criminal-defense paralegal runs roughly $8,000 a month or more once salary, benefits, and overhead are loaded in (Salary.com median, loaded). Even the top tier sits under that, with no benefits load, no overhead, and no turnover.
The questions you are already asking
Who supervises the work?
Two layers, doing different jobs. Day to day, the quality is mine: I tailor the system to your practice, stay in communication throughout, and every deliverable passes the six-reviewer verification gate before it reaches your desk. Your firm’s attorney holds the legal judgment at both ends: strategy up front, and review at the end, where nothing goes out without them. I work as an extension of your firm, as California requires for paralegal work (Bus. & Prof. Code, § 6450). The service does not give legal advice; every recommendation is your attorney’s to adopt, reject, or rewrite.
What about confidentiality and privilege?
A signed confidentiality agreement comes before any file moves. Nothing is disclosed except as law compels. Your matter data is never used to train any model, and I am the only person who touches it. Privilege runs through your firm: the work is your attorney’s work product, done under your attorney’s direction.
What if the output is wrong?
Every deliverable is built to be reviewed, not trusted blind. A six-reviewer verification gate checks the work against the record, citations are verified live, and you are the last line.
We already use the AI in Lexis or Westlaw. What does this add?
Keep it. Protégé and CoCounsel are one general assistant, sold to every firm the same, and they help when you drive them. This is the other shape: a system engineered around your firm, running fixed checkable steps drilled on samples from filed work, with a halt for your attorney’s strategy call and six reviewers at the end. You send the file; finished, verified work comes back. The tools are not in competition. The hours are.
Will my staff have to learn new software?
No. This is a service, not a tool. Your staff keep working the way they work, and finished work product comes to them.
Why is the entry tier $1,500 and not more, or less?
It is sized against the market it replaces: freelance paralegal work in California is commonly quoted at $45 to $125 an hour, and a part-time hire carries loaded cost well past it. Cheaper would mean cutting the verification gate, and that is the part that protects you. The founding rate above is lower for the same plain reason: I am starting out, and pricing the first two firms accordingly.
This is run by a real paralegal who does the actual work, inside a working criminal defense practice, every day.
