Part-Time Remote Attorney – Contracts & Light Litigation (Ongoing)
I am seeking an experienced attorney (semi-retired, of counsel, or independently practicing) for ongoing, low-volume legal support on a flexible, remote basis.
This is not a high-pressure or high-volume role. It is intended to be a consistent, straightforward working relationship with a reliable, practical attorney who can provide sound judgment when needed.
Scope of Work:
• Review and redline contracts and agreements (leases, commercial agreements, general business documents)
• Provide clear, practical comments and guidance
• Occasional small claims and light litigation support, including:
• strategy input
• reviewing or assisting with filings
• general direction on handling disputes
• Periodic general legal input as situations arise
Nature of Engagement:
• Approximately 2.5 hours per month - any extra to be billed at $150 per hour.
• Work is intermittent (some weeks no work, some weeks a few hours)
• Fully remote, flexible schedule
• No heavy caseload, no ongoing court obligations required
• Long-term relationship preferred
Compensation:
• $250/month minimum retainer (paid regardless of usage)
• Typically $$600 - 800/month total depending on workload
The intent is to create a fair, predictable arrangement that works well for both sides — providing steady income without requiring full-time commitment.
Ideal Candidate:
• 10+ years legal experience
• Strong background in contracts and general commercial matters
• Comfortable with light litigation and dispute strategy
• Practical, commercially minded (not overly academic)
• Able to work independently and provide clear, concise input
• Responsive and easy to communicate with
Florida experience or familiarity is preferred, but not strictly required.
Approach:
I am looking for someone who is balanced — capable of being thoughtful and measured on contracts, but also confident and assertive when required in a dispute setting. At times, a firm, “bulldog” approach is appropriate, and I value someone who can take that stance when needed while remaining professional and controlled.
This is not a role for someone seeking high volume or complexity. It is better suited to someone who:
• enjoys flexible, low-stress work
• prefers a consistent, manageable workload
• values a straightforward working relationship
Next Steps:
If interested, please respond with:
• brief background and experience
• confirmation of current license status
• relevant areas of practice
• general availability
I am looking to move quickly and establish a long-term working relationship with the right person.
