Paralegal Program
Porzio, Bromberg & Newman is nationally recognized for having an innovative and effective paralegal program. The firm strives to maintain a ratio of at least one paralegal to every attorney and its paralegals are amongst the most highly trained and experienced in the industry.
How this benefits our clients:
- Cost Reduction: Our paralegals handle a broad scope of increasingly complex responsibilities. Through effective delegation and supervision, our paralegals perform tasks that most firms assign to higher-priced junior associates. This results in considerable costs savings to our clients.
- Quality of Work: Well-educated and trained paralegals raise the quality of the firm’s work product. Our paralegals are committed to work product excellence and advancing our clients’ litigation strategies and goals.
- Continuity: We strive to ensure maximum effectiveness by assigning paralegals to legal matters at their inception. Our paralegals become familiar with most, if not all, aspects of a matter and provide our clients with continuity.
How our program is different from others:
- Formal Training Program: Training never ends at Porzio. Our paralegal department has a comprehensive professional development program. We offer numerous in-house workshops and a variety of outside training sessions.
- Integral Part of the Team: We believe in teamwork. Our paralegals play a vital role in the effective and efficient delivery of premium client service. They contribute valuable insight and perspective that often differs from attorneys’. In order to be successful, our paralegals work proactively and constructively with all members of the team.
- Effective Utilization: We continuously seek ways to serve our clients better by improving the use of paralegals. We strive to identify, develop and implement opportunities for paralegals that advance premium client service and superior work product.
