Criminal Defense

DocketHire virtual assistants support criminal defense attorneys with discovery organization, court calendar management, client communication, and trial preparation.

Criminal defense attorneys carry heavy caseloads with urgent deadlines and high stakes for every client. DocketHire virtual assistants handle the administrative demands of criminal defense practice, allowing attorneys to spend more time on case investigation, client meetings, and courtroom advocacy. Our staff are trained to work with the pace and confidentiality requirements of criminal law.

Our assistants organize discovery materials, manage court appearance calendars, prepare motions and pleadings from templates, and maintain communication with clients and their families. They track bail and bond information, coordinate with investigators and expert witnesses, and ensure that all court deadlines are met. For firms handling both misdemeanor and felony cases, this support is essential to managing volume without errors.
