If you’re a solo or small firm lawyer struggling to get quality legal research and writing done on short notice (without needing to hire an associate) you should check out a service called Lawclerk.

In this episode I talk with one Lawclerk’s co-founder, Kristin Tyler, about how their service works, and why so many attorneys are enthralled when they discover what it can do for them.

If you want to see an example of the work product done by one of Lawclerk’s freelance contractors, check out this memo that I submitted to the Texas Bar Association.

If you decide to try LawClerk’s service you can get a $50 rebate on your first project by using the code: ernie50
