No, no and nope! We are none of the above. We do not provide legal advice or legal services. We are in the business of supporting great lawyers with the best community and technology partners. That’s it!

We charge our platform lawyers a monthly subscription to be part of our marketplace and community platform. Companies don’t pay anything other than the lawyer’s rate.

When you hire an advisor through HeyCounsel, they are your independent contractor. It is as simple as that! They are not our contractor or our employee (never were, never will be). We just source them, find them their future employer (you), and make sure they feel supported along the way. 

Yes, you should obtain malpractice insurance if you intend to practice outside of your current full-time in-house employment. We have a partnership with Embroker to provide discounted insurance for this specific form of representation; however, you may choose any malpractice insurance provider you’d like. Note: If you are in a state that does NOT require malpractice insurance and you’d like to move forward without obtaining malpractice insurance, you must disclose this in your Advisor Agreement and get written consent from your client prior to moving forward.
