Our Engagement Agreement

When you and a company decide to move forward, the mandate is formalized in a Goodlawyer engagement agreement — a three-party agreement between you, the company, and Goodlawyer. You provide the legal services, we handle everything around them (account management support, an app to manage your engagements, billing, collections, and a vibrant community at both our virtual and in person events). The engagement agreement ties the relationship together to protect all three parties.

We draft and manage it, so you're never writing or chasing an engagement agreement yourself. We start with our standard framework that we use across the whole network, refined over hundreds of engagements. Because the framework approach is consistent across every mandate, it allows us to move fast when the right opportunity comes up, minimizing redlines and contracting friction. And of course, you'll have a chance to review the agreement and raise any questions before signing.
