Of course! You’re more than welcome to sign-up as both a hiring attorney and a Lawclerk.
LAWCLERK was designed by attorneys who understand the ebbs and flows of private practice. Sign-up as a posting attorney when you need an extra set of hands and as a Lawclerk when you need a little extra income.
We use a third-party payment processing company called Braintree Payments, which is a subsidiary of PayPal, for all payment transactions.
The first time you apply to a project or a team, you will be prompted to enter your bank account information. This is strictly to streamline payment directly into your account upon project completion. No funds are ever taken out of your account.
Please note your bank account information is securely stored by Braintree. LAWCLERK cannot view or access your bank account information.
When you accept a project, Braintree charges the posting attorney and holds their funds pending successful completion of the project. Upon completion of the project, your payment is deposited into your bank account by Braintree. This ensures you get paid for the work complete!
