Why I Love to Serve the Small Practice
Workplace communication differs by role, culture, and personality. Clear expectations from leadership or onboarding help prevent misunderstandings with coworkers and superiors.
A 33% new hire turnover rate is high, as healthy rates typically fall between 10–20%. Improving retention requires clear expectations, strong onboarding, and better alignment from day one.
To achieve a 100% ROI, attorneys should charge clients at least twice the paralegal’s hourly rate. This ensures strong margins, greater efficiency, and a cost-effective alternative to attorney time.
