Things to Consider When You Hire Part Time
Lawyers
2
  • There are many reasons why a lawyer is a valuable
    addition to your team. When you have an expert in
    the law on hand to guide you through complex
    business matters you will instantly see the
    benefit to your firm.  In addition a lawyer will
    be able to advice on employment matters and help
    you to make the right decision for the benefit of
    your employees and your firm.
  • However, lawyers tend to be expensive
    commodities keeping one on your payroll to deal
    with occasional issues may seem an extravagant
    expense.  Fortunately, there is an option which
    is only recently becoming popular hire part time
    lawyers.

  • You can choose to hire one lawyer on a part time
    basis and keep them in hand to consult as
    needed.  Alternatively, you could hire part time
    lawyers as and when you need them on a casual /
    temporary basis.  Whichever option you feel is
    best for you there are several things which you
    should consider before you commit
  • Experience
  • The first thing to consider when looking to hire
    part time lawyers is what experience they have. 
    There are many very experienced and highly
    qualified lawyers who are dealing with workloads
    which are simply too big.  These lawyers are
    looking to change jobs in order to avoid burning
    out.  Their experience and qualifications can be
    extremely beneficial to your firm whilst they
    enjoy a slightly easier pace of life.

Why part Time
  • You must consider why a potential recruit wants
    to be part time.  It may be that they are facing
    burnout.  They may have become a parent and want
    more time with their children.  There are
    hundreds of reasons why part time is an asset to
    many people.  Before you hire part time lawyers
    it is essential to know what this reason is to
    ensure it coincides with your business
    interests.  You do not want to be looking to hire
    part time lawyers every other month!

5
Large Recruitment Pool
  • By advertizing for a part time lawyer you will be
    able to access the entire market.  Even lawyers
    looking for full time jobs may consider your
    application as they may either want to reduce
    their workload or undertake two part time jobs.
  • By opening up the opportunity to the entire
    recruitment pool you will get the best possible
    candidates and can enjoy a top level of legal
    aid.

6
Cost
  • You must be aware of the cost of hiring a full
    time lawyer and of how much you are likely to
    need the service throughout the year.  These two
    figures can help you to choose the right level of
    reward when you hire part time lawyers.  This
    will help to ensure you get a good lawyer and
    they get the remuneration they need and deserve.
  • It is important to note that by hiring a part
    time lawyer you can attract more qualified
    personnel without spending as much as one full
    time lawyer.  The increased competence,
    experience and expertise should help to justify
    why you employed them.
