Legal Associated Temp Agency – LATA is a full function temp agency in Portland/Vancouver that offers experienced, qualified temp lawyers. Although this market has been covered in some way by general, larger temp agencies, it has not been fully serviced. LATA will offer a much higher quality alternative to the current offering of temp attorneys. LATA will be a great option for small and mid-sized law offices that require temp legal help on individual projects.
LATA is also attractive to firms looking for an associate, but who want to test the lawyer for a period of time. LATA’s service will allow the firm to use a temp attorney for up to three months and then decide if they want to convert them into a full-time employee. This significantly reduces the risk associated with hiring new employees who you are not quite familiar with. LATA will find their niche in the Portland legal market.
LATA’s projected growth rate is 107% per year by the third year, with gross margins of 100% as a percentage of sales.
