Project Summary

Hoglund & Mrozik P.L.L.C, a leading law firm with extensive experience in Bankruptcy and Social Security cases, struggled with managing their growing caseloads. In 2017, they partnered with STAFFVIRTUAL to form a 20-person remote team in the Philippines. This collaboration aimed to simplify caseload management and reduce operational costs.

STAFFVIRTUAL recruited and trained Legal Assistants and Paralegals, set up necessary infrastructure, and streamlined work processes, allowing Hoglund Law to handle more cases efficiently and improve client satisfaction.

The Challenge

Despite having over 30+ years of industry experience, Hoglund Law faced several challenges with its growing caseloads. To maintain their high standards of service, they needed to implement strategic solutions–quickly.

Recruitment and Training

Finding qualified Legal Assistants and Paralegals with the necessary SSDI and BK expertise posed a significant challenge. Ensuring their smooth onboarding and familiarization with Hoglund Law’s practices required customized training programs created by STAFFVIRTUAL.

Expanding Fulfillment Capacity

Hoglund Law had a limited team and could not handle the increasing caseloads. The firm needed to scale its operations quickly to meet growing demands. However, scaling the team efficiently without compromising quality was a significant concern, requiring strategic planning and resource allocation.

Improving Caseload Management

With an influx of new clients, Hoglund Law needed to streamline their case management processes to maintain productivity and service quality. The firm sought a comprehensive solution that would enhance efficiency and reduce manual effort, allowing their attorneys to focus on higher-value tasks while maintaining a high standard of client service.

Achieve Significant Cost Savings

One of Hoglund Law’s primary objectives was to manage its growing caseloads while minimizing operational costs. The firm aimed to reduce overhead expenses by outsourcing repetitive and time-consuming processes. They needed a cost-effective solution that could deliver consistent growth, operational efficiency, and superior customer service.
