Frequently asked questions

What is the first step to hiring legal talent and determining the project cost?

One of the first steps in hiring any talent is to determine which skills you need for your project. You know you need help with legal, but what specific things are you trying to do? Upwork matches you with proven remote talent who can help you with all your needs, including:

  • Creating or reviewing contracts and agreements
  • Assisting with business formation, like LLCs or C-Corporations
  • Registering trademarks or filing for a patent

The cost of your project depends largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to complete your project. 

A legal project includes the following: 

  • Deliverables: What do you need done? Perhaps you need a professional to draft an employment agreement, or negotiation services, or consultations on a business merger or tax law. 
  • Skills: Identify the skills needed to complete the project (e.g., specialized in mergers and acquisitions or immigration law).
  • Project Length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project.
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for either an hourly rate or fixed-price contract.
