Freelance / Contractor / Telecommuting Legal Career with FREEDOM

Post by jimalan06 » Tue Nov 29, 2016 9:46 pm

My target school in George Washington. I am an entrepreneur / salesman at heart. I highly value my freedom of will. I do not intend to join BIGlaw or any other standard 40-120 hour/week career. My ideal job after obtaining my JD and passing the bar will allow me to work remotely 80% of the time. Can anyone recommend an area of law or position that will allow me to work for myself (freelance, contractor) or work for an company/organization that would allow such telecommuting? If so, what income could I expect?

Ok, my bad for giving you a serious answer in the other thread.

There is no such legal job. You don't want to be a lawyer. Don't go to law school.

Honestly, the closest I can think of is solo practice. You set your hours, you decide where you want to work. Income is HIGHLY variable, though.
