Job Description

About Rocket Lawyer We believe everyone deserves access to affordable and simple legal services. Founded in 2008, Rocket Lawyer is the largest and most widely used online legal service platform in the world. With offices in North America, South America, and Europe, Rocket Lawyer has helped over 30 million people create over 50 million legal documents, and get their legal questions answered. We are in a unique position to enhance and expand the Rocket Lawyer platform to a scale never seen before in the company’s history, to capture audiences worldwide. We are expanding our team to take on this challenge! About the role We’re looking to expand the number of attorneys we work with nationwide to provide legal advice under the Rocket Lawyer brand to our individual and our small and midsize business customers. This is a remote, independent contractor role; you would not be a Rocket Lawyer employee. Our technology platform connects you with customers who bring to us a wide variety of legal issues; we provide quality service to those customers at affordable rates. We handle the customer acquisition tasks and back office functions so you can focus on what you do best -- helping people resolve issues and navigate the complexities of doing business. Onboarding is simple, and we can start connecting you with free prospective clients immediately! We’re particularly interested in attorneys with experience in one or more of the following areas: Landlord / Tenant Employment Law Corporate law Contracts & Business Transactions Real Estate Law Family Law Intellectual property Estate Planning, Wills & Trusts

About you

• You’ll work remotely (we’ll send customers to you; you work with them on a schedule that works for you and the customer)
• You are experienced in your area of law with at least 1 year of practical experience in advising individuals and businesses in a given area of expertise (we’re looking for lawyers of all experience levels)
• You have a client-first mentality and a willingness to go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction and success
• You are tech-savvy enough to learn and use our tools and processes to help streamline the customer experience
• You have a willingness to learn new areas as the need arises
• You hold an active license and are in good standing with your local state bar, with a clean disciplinary history
• You'll support our mission of providing simple and affordable legal services

What we're not

• A traditional law firm. Rocket Lawyer is modernizing the way legal services are delivered, increasingly automating legal advice and building a large scale platform for a network of lawyers to work with small business and consumers online to provide affordable legal advice.
• Essentially, if you want to work remotely when it suits you, and enjoy helping clients without the hassle of finding, engaging, invoicing and collecting from clients, Rocket Lawyer may be for you!
