Techattan gives law firms across the United States and United Kingdom access to legally trained, common-law educated support professionals, at a cost structure domestic hiring cannot match.
Techattan is a US-registered company headquartered in Austin, Texas. Your engagement, your contract, and your account management all sit with our US entity.
Our legal support specialists are based in Asia, primarily in Pakistan, working scheduled to your firm’s business hours.
We state this openly because it is the entire basis of what we offer. Firms come to us precisely because this model gives them full-time, legally qualified support professionals at a fraction of domestic staffing cost. There is nothing to discover later.
Our leadership team moves regularly between the United States and our delivery operations in Asia, spending working time in both.
That is deliberate. The people who negotiate your engagement are the same people who sit with the delivery team, review work quality, and run onboarding for new specialists. There is no account layer separating the person you agreed terms with from the person accountable for the work reaching your desk.
When something needs fixing, you speak to someone who can fix it.
No account layer in between.
Pakistan’s legal system is built on the same common-law foundation as the United States and the United Kingdom. The same doctrine of precedent. The same procedural logic. The same drafting conventions. English is the working language of the courts and of legal education.
That combination is rare, and it changes what onboarding looks like. Our specialists do not need to be taught how a legal system works before they can support your matters. They already understand what a pleading is, why a limitation period matters, what makes a document privileged, and how a case file is structured.
What remains is training on your jurisdiction’s procedure and your firm’s workflows — a matter of weeks, not even months.
Every Techattan specialist meets all five of the following before being placed with a firm.
We shortlist exclusively from candidates holding an LLB from the University of London — a UK-awarded qualification, taught and examined in English, grounded in English common law. It is the same academic foundation as a UK-trained solicitor’s.
Our specialists are enrolled advocates admitted to practise before the courts in their own jurisdiction, and are bound by professional conduct obligations there. These are practising lawyers, not administrative staff.
We require a minimum of two years of legal experience. Our specialists range from two to ten years in practice, in chambers, or supporting international law firms. We match seniority to the complexity of your work.
Legal support is writing work. Every candidate completes a drafting assessment before interview. This is where most applicants are filtered out.
We receive roughly 200 applications a month. Fewer than ten reach placement.
This distinction matters, so we state it directly.
Our specialists are qualified only in their own jurisdiction.
They work as supervised support staff, under your firm’s direction, on tasks your firm defines. Every task has a scope agreed in advance. Work routes back to your supervising attorney or paralegal for review. Anything falling outside the agreed scope is escalated rather than decided.

Our workflows are built to support your obligations when working with non-lawyer assistance. What their legal training gives you is a support professional who understands the work. You are not explaining the basics.
We do not ask firms to change tools. Our specialists work in the systems your firm already runs, and are proficient across the platforms law firms actually use. Where you run something we have not worked in before, we onboard onto it within the first week.

Legal research is where a common-law education pays for itself. Our specialists are trained in case law analysis, statutory interpretation, and the drafting conventions of common-law jurisdictions — which means research support that arrives usable rather than requiring a rebuild.
We support:
All research is delivered for review by your supervising attorney. Our specialists compile, analyse, and summarise; your firm decides.
The person assigned to your firm works only on your matters. They learn your templates, your court preferences, and your partners’ drafting style. Not a shared pool, not a ticket queue.
Specialists are scheduled to your working day, whether that is Eastern, Central, Pacific, or London.
One point of contact who knows your matters and can act on them.
Every specialist signs a confidentiality agreement before being given access to any file or system.
