Your lawyers should be practising law, not managing paperwork
The case for offshore legal talent
Law firms and in-house legal teams are under mounting pressure to do more with less. Offshore legal support is no longer a workaround, it's a strategic advantage.
The most common bottleneck we see isn't a shortage of legal knowledge. It's bandwidth. Senior lawyers and partners spending 30–40% of their time on document preparation, research, and administrative tasks that don't require their expertise or their billing rate.
Offshore 24/7 places pre-vetted legal support professionals — paralegals, legal researchers, contract reviewers, and legal admin specialists — who integrate seamlessly with your existing team, working your hours, in your systems, under your supervision.

Why leading legal practices choose Offshore 24/7
Our approach
Legal is a trust-first industry. We build every placement around confidentiality, precision, and professional fit, not just availability and cost.
Legal-Specific Vetting
Every candidate is assessed on legal terminology, document handling protocols, and jurisdiction-relevant knowledge before they reach your shortlist. We don't place general admin staff in legal roles.
Confidentiality by Design
All legal support staff sign comprehensive NDAs at hiring. We enforce strict data security policies — secured workstations, restricted data transfer, and regular compliance audits.
Supervised, Not Autonomous
Offshore legal staff work under your supervision, in your systems, following your workflows. You retain full oversight and quality control. We simply provide the talent and infrastructure.
Jurisdiction-Aware Matching
Whether you practise in US federal law, UK common law, Australian regulatory frameworks, or cross-border commercial. We match you with staff who understand your legal environment.

Legal Support Pricing
Offshore legal support professionals through Offshore 24/7 are priced based on role complexity and experience — legal administrators, legal assistants, and KYC/AML analysts typically start from around $11–$13 AUD per hour, while paralegals, contract review specialists, and litigation support professionals generally range from $13–$18 AUD per hour, and senior roles such as compliance officers, legal operations coordinators, and corporate legal assistants sit at $16–$22 AUD per hour.
On a full-time annual basis, that's roughly $18,500–$45,000 AUD — compared to $70,000–$120,000 AUD or more for equivalent local hires in Australia, the UK, or the US once salary, superannuation, leave, and recruitment costs are included. That's where the 60% cost reduction comes from.
Every engagement is priced as a single all-inclusive monthly figure covering your staff member's compensation, HR, payroll, equipment, NDAs, and ongoing account management — with no setup fees, no lock-in contracts, and no hidden costs.
