Meet your Founder
Hi, I'm Kellie - your go-to VA for busy lawyers and professionals.
Ready to free up your time for fee-earning work, business development, and family? I'm so happy you've found us.
Having spent 24 years working in the legal industry as a PA and 6 years running a Virtual Support business supporting lawyers and law firms, I know how to help busy professionals just like you.
My mission? To start making your working life easier from the moment we connect, with straightforward and professional business support services. How? By taking on the time-consuming but essential tasks needed to keep your business running, we free you and your core staff up for fee-earning work.
Why us?
The business grew quickly, and by 2021, I took on my first associate, Nicola. Since then, we’ve continued to expand, bringing on more experienced associates. Each member of the team is highly skilled in their respective fields, helping law firms grow and thrive.
Today, my company, Kellie Simpson Virtual Business Support, is a thriving limited company with a large team of associates. We offer a range of services, from admin and business support to specialized legal support, CRM, marketing, and more. Due to high demand, we’ve also expanded our expertise to include the medical, property, and financial sectors.
My passion for this work grows alongside the business. I love collaborating with clients and regularly meet with them to ensure they’re happy with the services they receive. I also work closely with clients to improve their onboarding processes and am proud to be a Clio Affiliate Partner.
