Maybe you’ve been thinking of making the switch to in-house, or you like the work but want to scale back to part-time. We have a solution: freelance as corporate counsel.
It’s true this isn’t a traditional path, but for someone with the right skills and expertise it could be a dream career move. After all, corporations often hire outside counsel for projects that are beyond their in-house expertise.
Since it’s not a traditional career path, you might want some tips before getting started. Luckily, we have some ready for just this occasion.
Once you do land those clients, you’ll also want to check out FindLaw’s Corporate Counsel Center. Our site offers free access to cases and codes, as well as a repository of sample business contracts that can make a freelance corporate counsel’s job easier.
