[vc_row el_class=”services-page-icon-box” css=”.vc_custom_1525405353963{margin-top: 144px !important;margin-bottom: 89px !important;}”][vc_column][thim-heading title=”Increasing Paralegal Productivity” sub_title=”Team Training Program” description=”” align=”text-center”][vc_empty_space height=”71px”][vc_column_text]Increasing Paralegal Productivity is important for a successful paralegal program at a law firm. Here’s why:
Paralegal A and Paralegal B have a 1,600 billable-hour quota to meet.
Paralegal A, working at 90% productivity, will meet that 1,600 billable-hour quota in 1,760 work hours.
Paralegal B, working at 70% productivity, will meet that 1,600 billable-hour quota in 2,080 work hours.
That means that Paralegal B is working 320 more hours per year to do the same amount of work as Paralegal A.
But how do you motivate a paralegal to be more productive when they are already working long hours? Show them how that increase in productivity could allow them to have a better work/life balance.
Maybe they use those extra 320 hours per year to leave the office at a decent time or not have to work weekends to catch up.
In this motivational program, we show paralegals and other legal professionals how to increase their productivity while they are in the office so that they can achieve a better work/life balance and be out of the office sooner. We show them how to measure their daily, weekly and monthly productivity and then give them solid methods to improve those numbers. Your paralegals will be able to set a plan for which methods will work best to see the most improvement quickly.
