Thinking about on-demand legal staffing? Here are quick answers to questions clients ask us most.
What are on-demand legal services?
On-demand legal services provide flexible legal talent that integrates directly into existing in-house legal departments. Instead of committing to a permanent role, you can bring in experienced legal professionals for short-term work, special projects, or ongoing part-time needs.
Is Paragon Legal a law firm?
No. We are a legal talent solution: we find the top legal talent that matches your company’s needs, and they get embedded straight into your team.
How is Paragon different from outside counsel?
We see the two as complementary: outside counsel is the right fit for bet-the-company, high-stakes matters, while Paragon covers overflow, workload spikes, and the specialized expertise your in-house team needs day-to-day. Instead of sending work out to a third party, we match you with attorneys and other legal professionals who embed directly in your company and take your direction, giving you cost-effective support right where the work happens.
Can Paragon help small businesses?
We work with companies of all sizes, as long as they have an in-house legal team that needs support. It’s less about company size and more about the team: when big projects come up, or priorities change, they need experienced, on-demand legal talent that can get to work right away.
Does Paragon offer part-time legal support?
Absolutely. We give you flexible legal help that adapts to your needs, giving you access to the right talent whenever and however you need it. If you need a part-time attorney or legal professional to cover gaps in staffing or simply need specialized advice, we find the right match for your team, fast.
Can an interim attorney become a permanent hire?
Of course. If you’re happy with the service and specialized expertise of an interim attorney, and the attorney is open to converting, they can be hired on as a full-time employee with your team when you’re ready to commit.
