Paragon’s Approach
What we most believe sets us apart from our competitors is our relentless commitment to putting people first. Over and over again, we receive compliments from attorneys and clients alike for our professional, thoughtful, and responsive service. But don’t just take our word for it. We encourage you to read our Glassdoor reviews and hear from our attorneys directly about their experience working with us.
Flexibility
Paragon was founded by a lawyer who deeply understood the challenges of balancing career and family for attorneys. She set out to create a sustainable model where talented legal professionals could continue to grow their careers while also having more time for family, hobbies, and other personal and professional interests. This means we find you a project and situation that works for you. Most of Paragon’s attorneys enjoy this lifestyle so much that they have stayed with us for several years.
Meaningful Work
Our clients know that Paragon is very selective about the talent we present for engagements. As such, our attorneys are treated as extremely valuable members of the law department when they arrive and are given interesting, high-level projects. These assignments continue to foster the career growth of our professionals. We work closely with our team members to ensure their professional goals are being met while they are with us and even after they move on to their next endeavors.
Client Relationships
Paragon boasts an impressive roster of marquee clients, such as Facebook, Airbnb, and Apple. We have a stellar reputation in the market and have worked with many of our clients for several years. We pride ourselves in our ability to make a great match for both the client and the attorney. We also communicate with you and the client frequently to maximize project success and minimize gaps between engagements.
Compensation & Benefits
As one of the earliest secondment firms in the US, we know the market very well and regularly benchmark our compensation and benefits against our peers to ensure we present our valued talent with the most competitive packages. We offer a comprehensive suite of benefits, including multiple health care plans so our people can choose the best fit for their needs.
Community
Paragon hosts professional development, social, and community service events throughout the year for our attorneys, contracts managers, and paralegals to get to know one another and build relationships. Many of our clients are former Paragon attorneys themselves, so this wonderful network extends beyond the time you are on project with us. We deeply value knowing our team and want to support their goals professionally and personally.
