I'd have to have associates and more business. I don't have the energy to work twice as much, and I probably can't raise my rate too much more.

Why would you need more Associates?

Can't you hire a paralegal to do the grunt work for you?

I don't know how I'd use a paralegal effectively. I don't have a lot of standard work that I could systematize well.

i found a great person for $25/hour, and she has a day job so she just works for me when she has a little time as a side gig (and no expectation of full time work). She isn't very skilled yet (recent paralegal program graduate). Im with you where its hard to delegate legit work to her, but I'm starting with having her follow up with the clerk's office, ordering medical records, etc on a bunch of shit. Stuff that I had been meaning to do for weeks and she got it done soon after I sent her an assignment email. Definitely makes life much easier. I plan to train her in some of my more specific stuff a little.

Several years. The covid years were really bad. Commercial litigation, lots of construction litigation (more contract and lien work than defect).

There are lots of nit picky requirements (good on the defense side), but they're not hard for diligent contractors to secure.
