Legal is stuck in a time-warp.

Across the globe, high-performing teams are tapping into remote talent, free from the shackles of headcount.

But legal? Still hiring in ways that turn off the best talent.

THE TALENT IS OUTSIDE

The very best professionals are no longer settling for the conventional 9-to-5, but you’re still scouting for full-time.

SLOW TO REACT

In protecting against downside, you don’t have the time to create upside.

CAPTIVE TO CYCLES

It’s either all-hands-on-deck or fallow periods — you never seem to be able to plan your workstreams.

COST PRESSURES

Law firms charge a bomb and salaries have to be justified; you’re not getting the value you signed up for.

There’s a new way to run the show.

With Streams, you can assign dedicated streams of work to freelance legal professionals trained in your practice area.

Whether it’s a discrete contract review or a three-month due diligence where you need a part-time hand, we’ll always get you the right professional at the right time.

ACCESS THE BEST TALENT

Collaborate with specialist professionals and domain experts who work for a fee, not a salary.

CUT COSTS AND OVERHEADS

Save time and money otherwise spent on full-time staff who come in on hefty pay packets.

ACT AND REACT QUICKER

Tap into a clued-in talent pool to assign tasks that need an expert eye and quick turnaround.

COVER MORE GROUND

Explore areas that your team has traditionally stayed away from because of a lack of expertise.

MANAGE TIME BETTER

Reduce dead hours and open up thinking time, because of more rational workstream allocation.

GO BEYOND BOUNDARIES

Talent in our Streams pool is unified by vocation but unconstrained by location.

“The world’s top talent is flocking towards the flexibility and fulfilment of contract work — and smart companies are building dream teams off the back of this highly skilled, highly motivated workforce.

When the cream of the crop wants to work with you, without the overhead or the drama, what company wouldn’t leap at that opportunity?”
