SAMFROM BRIGHT LINE

The paralegal you can’t afford not to hire.

Sam drafts the paperwork, pulls and verifies the citations, handles intake, and puts every action back on your desk for review.

The work, shown plainly

Not usage. Work returned.

Every report names what Sam completed, how much plan capacity it used, and the comparable staff time the firm chose for the calculation. Administrative work is measured separately.

What came back

Documents drafted, records reviewed, research completed, and administrative work handled.

How long it took

Sam Legal Work Hours beside a conservative estimate of comparable human time.

What it was worth

The firm’s own hourly assumptions applied line by line, with the calculation available for review.

The matter workspace

Practice management reimagined with WorkSpace.

Open the matter and the work is already together: the conversation, the current paper, the decisions waiting for you, and the next things Sam can handle.

No digging through a stack of menus just to remember where you left off. Work beside Sam while the file stays in view.

Illustrative 10-hour trial report

Here is what Sam put back on the desk.

This example uses $50 per hour for substantive support and $25 per hour for administrative support. A firm’s report uses its configured assumptions and its retained work record.

The retained work record remains available when the trial closes.

Illustration only. Human-time estimates vary by task and complexity. Estimated value is calculated from the firm’s configured hourly assumptions; it is not client-billable time, fee income, guaranteed savings, or a promise that a particular person would complete the work in the stated time.

The comparison

The plan price sits beside the work.

No token counts. No provider vocabulary. The firm sees the completed assignments, the capacity used, the comparable staff-time estimate, and the arithmetic behind it.

Current plan$99

20 hours of legal work equivalent.

Administrative tasks at no additional charge.

Illustrative human-support comparison$2,387.50

Calculated from the work listed above and the two disclosed example rates—not from a client fee, recovery, or legal invoice.

The control

Sam proposes. You approve.

The work is useful because the boundary is visible. Sam drafts and checks. The attorney decides what leaves the building. When an action would cross a structural rule, the action is unavailable and the refusal is recorded.

Sam from Bright Line

The staff you do not have. The record you can review.

Sam does the paperwork and returns the decision to the attorney.
