Legal & Compliance Disrupted

A blend of strategic resourcing options

Legal & Compliance Workforce

A flexible Extension of your team

As a company

When it counts.

Immediately choose a temporary talent selected from a pool of legal & compliance experts (280+ professionals). Simply ask for the required skill set and attitude to get the work done.

A temporary specialist can instantly staff high-level projects, resourcing gaps (e.g. parental leave or awaiting new hire) and workflow spikes (regulatory event, litigation, corporate restructuring or due diligence). In contrast to a secondee of a traditional law firm, a temporary specialist offers in-house orientation and produces bespoke deliverables. This further offers the advantage to be generally allocated to the variable cost rather than on the (fixed) FTE budget.

Indicative cost per day for a temporary specialist:

Paralegal | Reviewer

450 - 600

Junior

600 - 850

Mid

800 - 1'150

Senior

1'100 - 1'650

Note: all prices in CHF excl. VAT
