Flexible Legal Staffing Platform for Solo & Small Law Firms

Solo practitioners and small law firms frequently face challenges with high overhead costs associated with full-time staff and struggle to delegate 'lawyering work' effectively, preventing them from focusing on business development. This SaaS platform would operate as a specialized marketplace, connecting these firms with vetted contract legal professionals (e.g., paralegals, legal researchers, virtual legal assistants, contract attorneys) for project-based, hourly, or fractional work. The platform would handle secure communication, document sharing, task management, time tracking, and simplified invoicing/payment processing. This significantly reduces overhead and increases operational flexibility for law firm owners, allowing them to scale their capacity on demand without the commitment of full-time hires. Expected revenue: By charging a commission (e.g., 15-25%) on the professional's billed hours or project fees, if the platform facilitates $500,000 worth of legal work per month, a 20% commission would generate $100,000/month. The legal services market is substantial, and the demand for flexible, cost-effective staffing solutions is growing, particularly among smaller firms.
