In this edition. A member is looking for someone with university research integrity proceedings and/or federal grant compliance experience for an IP dispute matter; A new thread on what to do with clients who are triaging their legal issues with AI; and, an upcoming discussion on Lateral Hub, a job board for top-tier law firms.

Taking a page from YC: Our “Request for Lawyers”

An important part of HeyCounsel’s mission is to have coverage across every practice area in every jurisdiction. This is part of the promise of a full service law firm, and since our mission is “big firm power for small firms and solos”, we know we need a comprehensive coverage map so no need is left unmet.

The best HeyCounsel applicants come from referrals, so instead of running large paid campaigns to invite strangers to the platform, we’re taking a grassroots approach and stealing a page from the YC's recruitment book. We’ve published our “Request for Lawyers”, and we hope you’ll read it.

If you know of a good lawyer in any of these areas, tag them or send this their way. If they mention your name during their application, we'll send you a $50 Starbucks gift card. And they'll get a month free.
