About Rocket Lawyer

We believe everyone deserves access to affordable and simple legal services. Founded in 2008, Rocket Lawyer is the largest and most widely used online legal service platform in the world. With offices in North America and Europe, Rocket Lawyer has helped over 25 million people create over 50 million legal documents , and get their legal questions answered.

Rocket Lawyer is not a traditional law firm. Rocket Lawyer is modernizing the way legal services are delivered, increasingly automating legal advice and building a large scale platform for a network of lawyers to work with small business and consumers online to provide affordable legal advice.

About the Role

Rocket Lawyer, as a legal technology company, is authorized by the Utah Supreme Court’s Office of Legal Services Innovation to offer legal services to the public in the state of Utah.

By combining expert legal advice from attorneys with technology, Rocket Lawyer is accelerating its mission to provide access to justice to small businesses and consumers who are currently excluded from the market. We're growing quickly, investing in our technology and hiring a team of attorneys to take on this challenge!

We’re looking to expand the number of attorneys we work with in Utah to provide legal advice under the Rocket Lawyer brand to our individual and our small and midsize business customers. This is a remote, independent contractor role. Our technology platform connects you with customers who bring to us a wide variety of legal issues; we provide quality service to those customers at affordable rates. We handle the customer acquisition tasks and back office functions so you can focus on what you do best -- helping people resolve issues and navigate the complexities of doing business.

We’re interested in attorneys with experience in one or more of the

following areas:

  • Advising start-ups on a variety of matters
  • Corporate law
  • Contracts and commercial law

  • Excellent drafting skills and attention to detail
  • Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office and Google Suite

About you:

  • Self-starter: You’ll work remotely and independently. We’ll send customers to you; you work with them on a schedule that works for you and the customer.
  • Tech Savvy: You are interested in new technology. You’re excited to learn a new tool and apply it to your day-to-day for efficiency gains.
  • Curious: You have a willingness to learn new areas as the need arises.
