Paralegal Capacity Calculator
Enter your firm's numbers to see whether your paralegal function is over capacity, and by how much.
Target caseload for mixed / general pi work: 50 active cases per paralegal. This is an industry rule of thumb, not a measured benchmark - adjust it to your firm.
Over capacity
120.0 cases / paralegal - 0.50 paralegals / attorney
Your paralegals carry about 120 active cases each, about 140% over a manageable caseload.
This calculator gives a directional read on paralegal capacity, not a staffing audit. Target caseloads are an industry rule of thumb - actual capacity varies by case complexity, jurisdiction, and firm workflow.
