Documents are integral to both the practice and business of law. Law firms depend on high volumes of secretarial/administrative support, which in turn require significant management overhead. Increasing labor costs and budget constraints create constant pressure to do more with less.

We can reallocate many document-related tasks that can be done more effectively by specialized teams, improving lawyer-to-assistant ratios and optimizing how administrative resources are used. Boost’s highly trained word processing teams can assign time-intensive complex documents to multiple resources for faster turnaround and more thorough quality checking. Drawing on our extensive experience, we can streamline document workflows and balance work volumes across locations to optimize utilization of staff.
Utilizing these and other strategies, Boost delivers more efficient and reliable document support, while helping firms reduce overall operating costs and management overhead. With Boost’s Word Processing Services, law firms can do more with less and stay focused on the practice of law.
