From time to time I get calls or emails from lawyers who ask if I know anyone who does freelance legal research. I’ve made some recommendations, but the other day I was thinking there might be some lawyers out there who I don’t know about who want to do this kind of work. Lately, I find myself needing someone like this too. So if there are any legal eagles out there who are willing and able to do legal research on a per-project basis then (as Ross Perot used to say) I’m all ears. Send me your contact information, resume and a writing sample to: esvenson {at symbol] gmail.com.
P.S. If you're a practicing lawyer, check out this Law Practice Assessment . After answering a few questions, you'll get detailed recommendations for improving five key areas of your practice.

Ernie, and anyone else viewing this who might have leads:
I have a wealth of experience in law, and am also a doctor. I want to leave the law firm scene and do project work that draws on my biggest strengths: identifying issues, teasing them apart, researching resolutions, and putting the results into persuasive and compelling writing. The work can range from medico-legal analyses to the most complex litigation matters — I’ve covered it all.
Hey Ernie,
Seems like you have had many posts regarding your request. If you are still looking though, I am a Freelancer as well. I am a recent Law School Grad preparing for the NY Bar exam. In the meantime I have been doing freelance research for several solo practitioners. It has worked out so great that I have become an expert researcher and have decided that I am going to continue to do Freelance even after Bar Admission. I have my own Lexis access which really helps. If you are ever looking for someone to do your research please contact me.
Thanks.

Don’t worry. I’m not going to use broke law students, or any other kind of law students to do my research. I got plenty of nice emails from qualified lawyers who are able to help out. Thanks

Broke law students with free westlaw may run you into westlaw problems if westlaw finds out their “for educational use only” access is being used for profit.
This may help:

I’m definitely looking for an attorney.
Are you looking specifically for attorneys, or will a paralegal suffice?
