INDEPENDENCE AND CONTROL

Communicate and negotiate directly with hiring lawyers about all facets of their projects, such as compensation, hours, work location, etc. YOU get to choose your own rate without being controlled by temp agencies and staffing companies. Would you rather work on projects of your choice or go the more traditional route, working on document review jobs that most law school graduates find themselves unwillingly doing? Forget being at the mercy of staffing firms. Your future is now in YOUR hands, where it should be.
