A growing number of law firms are looking to FreelanceLaw to find legal freelancers

The recession is hitting the legal profession hard, reportedly putting at least 10,000 legal professionals out of a job just this year. Law firms that learn to adapt and modify their business practices will be the ones that survive and thrive. Strategic use of legal outsourcing is one part of an evolving law firm business structure.


Law firms from 12 states, ranging from AmLaw100 to solo practitioners, have already turned to the FreelanceLaw database to locate freelance attorneys, paralegals, interpreters, and more. Unlike any other freelancer website, FreelanceLaw was designed by an attorney for attorneys with confidentiality of law firms and their underlying clients a priority. There is no need to publicly post project needs; just confidentially search profiles of over 1,100 freelancers and directly contact them through the FreelanceLaw website.
