In litigation, everything is a deadline.
For 35 years, legal teams have handed First Legal the operational side of their cases and gotten back three things: one company that answers for the work, a price they can see before they order, and a record of exactly what was done on every job.
Filings, service of process, court reporting and trial support, records, eDiscovery, digital production, and licensed investigations. Handled by people who carry out your instructions to the letter, solve problems before they reach your desk, and never leave you wondering whether it got done.
One company, accountable from filing through trial.
Six dedicated teams, one company that answers for the result.
You will know what it costs before you order it. Published, market specific rate cards. No surprise line items.
Everything we do comes back with a record of what was done, by whom, and when. Proof of service, filing confirmations, status reports, chain of custody, the investigator’s report.
