Stratos Legal Launches Work-Study Program For Low-Income Students

Posted on September 14th, 2010 No Comments

Stratos Legal, a leading nationwide legal services company, announced today that it has launched a work-study program for students from Cristo Rey Jesuit College Preparatory High School in Houston.

In exchange for working a 40-hour week at Stratos’s corporate headquarters in Houston, Stratos helps pay the cost of each student’s tuition. Currently, there are four students in the work-study program. Stratos provides deposition and records retrieval services to law firms and corporate legal departments.

“Cristo Rey is an amazing story,” said Christin Kirby, founder and owner of Stratos Legal. “To be associated with this school and helping these bright young people to earn their degrees is an honor for me and our employees. Plus, it’s just great having these kids here every day.”

In 2009, shortly after the closing of long-time Catholic school Mount Carmel, Cristo Rey Jesuit College Preparatory High School was formed. Its mission is to combine personal responsibility, academic rigor, and a corporate work-study environment to empower students of all faiths to reach their full potential. Students come from low-income families in the Greater Houston area.

Medical records may be accesible electronically soon

Posted on August 26th, 2010 No Comments

The medical journal Health Affairs and Brandeis University’s Health Industry Forum, doctors, hospitals and other concerned participants recently held a conference in order to discuss rules and guidelines for a doctors and hospitals moving from paper medical records to electronic ones.

This idea is gaining support as they discuss what they see as positive aspects such as cutting health care costs and cutting down on the use of paper. Almost every other business uses electronic systems except the health industry.

Electronic records systems are only used in one out of every 10 hospitals. Some think that although the switch to the new system will be beneficial, it will be too expensive and very difficult. As of now, however, IT professionals are being trained to transfer the records from paper to electronic correctly.

If you need relevant medical records for your case as quickly as possible, contact the Houston Records Retrieval specialist of Stratos Legal by calling 800-971-1127.

StratosLink Saves Firms Several Thousand $$ in First 60 Days

Posted on July 16th, 2010 No Comments

Stratos Legal’s desktop video conferencing solution, StratosLink, saves law firms several thousand dollars in travel expenses within the first 60 days of implementation. The only hi-definition audio and video conferencing solution available at the desktop level in the legal industry delivers savings to a law firm’s bottom line almost immediately.

Because StratosLink only costs $65 per hour for a deposition, attorneys aren’t forced to spend money on airfare, hotel, transportation and meals whenever they take a depo. A three-hour depo halfway across the country, for instance, can cost as much as $1,500. But taking that same depo on their laptop from their office using StratosLink costs only $195.

Over the course of two months, six, three-hour depos that would typically cost $9,000 are only $1,170 thanks to desktop video conferencing from Stratos Legal. These savings are particularly significant to firms taking a case on contingency. No longer having to frontload such significant costs dramatically eases the strain to the bottom line. To view a free demo of StratosLink, contact Stratos Legal at 800.971.1127 or help@stratoslegal.com.
