Hiring VAs from the Philippines now makes a lot sense for many law firms.
(this was the topic of a recent podcast episode).
Let’s consider why more lawyers are hiring overseas VAs.
Benefits of Philippine VAs
Proficiency in English
Filipinos are known for their strong command of English. The majority of the population is bilingual, which enables effective communication in global business contexts.
Strong Work Ethic:
The Filipino culture is characterized by hard work, dedication, and a strong sense of responsibility.
This translates into dependable, high-quality service from VAs in the Philippines.
Affordability
Filipino VAs charge, broadly speaking, about 20% of what workers in the U.S. would charge for doing the same work.
This is probably the main reason so many lawyers are flocking to use overseas VAs.
🎥 Zoom Session
If you want to learn more about outsourcing to VAs in the Philippines I'll be doing a zoom session next Thursday (June 1st) for members of my Inner Circle.
I'll talk about this topic generally, but...
I'll also share my specific experiences in working with two different Filipino VAs over the past several months.
One helps me automate various business processes using Zapier and Airtable .
The other is a lawyer who helps me in various ways related to my business on an ongoing basis.
If you're interested in joining the Inner Circle and attending the session, you can get more details here.
