Read more about Aristo Law

Aristo Law is a remote legal staffing and recruitment service for law firms. It helps attorneys define a support role, sources and screens candidates, and lets the firm interview and select the professional it will hire directly. The firm pays the selected team member separately and supervises work inside its own approved systems.

Firms can recruit for virtual legal assistance, paralegal support, client intake, case coordination, demand-package preparation, and medical-records administration. The role brief can reflect a practice area, software, schedule, and attorney-review boundaries; remote staff support the workflow while the law firm retains legal judgment and final approval.

You interview. You choose. You hire directly.

Before you hire

Questions about virtual legal staffing

What can a virtual legal assistant handle?

A virtual legal assistant can support scheduling, client communication, matter organization, document preparation, intake, and other recurring administrative workflows. Responsibilities depend on the role brief, the candidate’s experience, and your firm’s supervision.

How is a remote paralegal different from a legal assistant?

A remote paralegal role usually places more emphasis on substantive legal support, such as research, drafting assistance, discovery organization, and case preparation. A legal assistant role often emphasizes administration and client coordination. We define the actual responsibilities before recruiting.

Who employs and supervises the remote professional?

Your firm hires the selected professional directly and pays their salary separately from Aristo’s recruitment fee. Your firm manages assignments, access, supervision, and performance.

Where are candidates based, and can they work our hours?

Aristo primarily recruits from South Africa and the Philippines. Your working hours and time-zone requirements form part of the candidate brief. Discuss any location or schedule preferences during the consultation.

Can we recruit for part-time support?

Yes. Discuss the hours and responsibilities you need so the recruitment brief reflects the role. Availability and compensation depend on the candidate and agreed scope.

Will remote staff provide legal advice to our clients?

The staffing role supports your legal team. Legal advice, strategy, final review, and decisions remain with the responsible attorney. Define those boundaries in the role description and onboarding process.
