Overview
What is Paralegal Support?
Paralegal support outsourcing involves embedding trained legal professionals into your practice to handle the operational tasks that keep matters moving — client correspondence, court filings, document drafting from templates, and matter administration. Treba provides LLB-holders from Kenyan universities who work inside your case management system and follow your firm's procedures as if they were sitting in your office.

The challenge
Why UK companies struggle with paralegal support.
Every UK law firm has the same bottleneck: qualified solicitors doing work that does not require their qualification. Client care letters, court form filings, witness statement formatting, and matter updates eat into billable hours. But recruiting a paralegal in London takes 4–6 weeks, costs £32,000+ in salary alone, and turnover is high because the role is often a stepping stone to a training contract. You need consistent, reliable paralegal capacity — not a revolving door.
