Temporary, temp-to-hire, direct hire and payroll services — customized to what your firm or legal department needs.
A shortage of top-tier employees exists in good economic times and bad. It is expensive and time consuming to attract, hire and retain quality people. Money and time are spent running ads, sifting through résumés and interviewing candidates — many of whom are not qualified.
To many employers, time is the most expensive element of the hiring process, because you can never get it back. Meanwhile the work keeps piling up.
LawStaff Group is ready and able to help your organization. We specialize in placing top-tier legal professionals. Our recruiters are industry professionals who screen and test our candidates for skill sets directly correlated to the positions for which they are applying.
We pride ourselves on providing our clients with quality candidates, and on providing our candidates with strong opportunities that are in line with their career goals.
Our clients find that using our services saves them time and money, and frees them up for more important things — like growing their business and managing their departments.
We provide qualified candidates for one-day absences, special projects, vacation coverage, medical or maternity leave, or the interim while you conduct a permanent search.
Typical assignments include assisting a busy commercial real estate attorney, handling trial preparation for a large litigation case, providing paralegal services in a corporate legal department, or working as a closing paralegal at a real estate firm.
While on assignment, LawStaff Group oversees payroll by direct deposit, workers' compensation, employer taxes and unemployment insurance. We are fully insured, and we stand behind our temporary employees with a guarantee.
Many companies hire on a temp-to-hire basis. You evaluate the candidate's actual work performance before you commit to hiring them full time — which reduces the risk of hiring someone who is not right for the job.
In many cases the temporary candidate is so qualified that they are hired for the position full time. When you are ready, we work together to transition them onto your staff.
Whatever level of legal professional you need, LawStaff Group has an extensive network of candidates who are selectively looking for exceptional permanent opportunities.
We identify the person you need in a timely manner — an attorney, paralegal, legal secretary, contract administrator, receptionist, file clerk or any other legal support professional. You are only presented with pre-screened, qualified candidates based on your job description.
Our direct-hire placements are backed by a replacement guarantee.
For employers who have already recruited a candidate but cannot hire them directly right now — usually because of current-year head-count budget restrictions or a hiring freeze.
We payroll your candidate, paying them by check or direct deposit, while providing workers' compensation, unemployment and general liability insurance coverage and paying all employer taxes.
Establishing long-term relationships and providing quality hiring solutions is our top priority. We are the first step in your hiring process — we streamline it by providing qualified, pre-screened candidates who can add value immediately, so you can focus on your core business.
We interview our candidates and listen to their career goals and objectives.
We qualify each candidate to understand their skills and the value they can bring to our clients.
We test our candidates' abilities with exams.
We check references to verify previous work history and performance.
For every search, we build a screening questionnaire with your input. Every résumé we submit comes with the candidate's answers — so your questions are answered up front, saving you time when you review candidates. For example, if you are hiring a litigation paralegal for a heavy trial calendar, we build the questionnaire around trial preparation, e-filing and the case management software your firm uses — so you can see who has that experience before the first call.
We invite every candidate to film an optional video introduction. Candidates love the chance to showcase their experience — and clients love seeing how they communicate before the first call, not just a PDF. Over 1,000 candidates across NorthPoint have already filmed one.
We anticipate the needs of our clients and recruit the best possible candidates on a proactive basis. We use many sources, including our strong referral network. Many of the candidates we place are referrals who are not actively looking for a job — they are looking for a career change offering more opportunity and challenge.
We work as a team on every order that is placed with us. Our objective is to fill the position with the most qualified candidate in a timely manner.
