You’re losing valuable attorney time on work your firm can delegate

Your attorneys have clients to advise and cases to handle. So why are they still buried in admin?
Every hour spent formatting documents, chasing signatures, and organizing case files is time your firm could spend on billable work.
EDGE connects you with pre-vetted remote legal and administrative professionals who handle routine tasks under your firm’s direction. Less time on paperwork. More time for work that your clients actually pay for.
Every hour lost to paperwork comes at a price
Routine admin leaves less time for billable work and can slow down responses to potential clients. Hiring another local employee might help, but it also means another salary, benefits, and overhead.
Here’s what U.S. law firms are up against:

Lawyers average just 3 billable hours in an 8-hour workday

According to Clio’s 2025 Legal Trends benchmarks, law firms average a 38% utilization rate, or roughly three billable hours per eight-hour day. Not all remaining time goes to admin, but routine tasks are one area where firms can free up attorney time.

Only 33% of law firms responded to email inquiries

In Clio’s 2024 study of 500 law firms, only 33% replied to email inquiries, while 40% answered phone calls. When inquiries go unanswered, potential clients may look elsewhere before booking a consultation.

U.S. legal secretaries earn a median annual wage of $55,570

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that legal secretaries and administrative assistants earned a median annual wage of $55,570 in May 2025. That’s before additional employer expenses like benefits and payroll taxes.
