Overview

What Discovery Support support looks like

Use this page to understand the scope, workflows, and rollout expectations before you decide whether this is the right staffing lane for your firm.

Discovery is one of the most time consuming and detail intensive phases of litigation. Managing thousands of documents, tracking production deadlines, and organizing evidence requires dedicated support that many firms struggle to staff internally. DocketHire provides trained virtual assistants who support your discovery process from initial requests through production. Our staff help organize, index, and track documents so your litigation team can focus on case strategy.

Our discovery support covers both sides of the process. For outgoing discovery, your assistant helps draft interrogatories, requests for production, and requests for admission using your templates. For incoming productions, they organize and index documents, create privilege logs, and flag key documents for attorney review. They maintain detailed tracking spreadsheets that show what has been requested, what has been produced, and what remains outstanding.

Large scale discovery can overwhelm even well staffed firms. DocketHire provides the additional capacity you need without the commitment of full time hires. Our assistants are trained in common discovery platforms and understand legal concepts like privilege, relevance, and proportionality at a support level. They work alongside your attorneys and paralegals to keep discovery on track and ensure your firm meets every production deadline.
