Fractional General Counsel
$250kTalking Tree
Talking Tree was founded by a tech attorney who, after moving from a Fortune 100 company to a midsized public one, saw how even well‑resourced legal teams struggled with the cost of commercial legaltech tools. If they couldn’t afford it, how could a scrappy startup? So, we built an alternative. With a team of engineers, NLP researchers, and legal experts, Talking Tree now offers affordable, nonprofit‑built tools at true operational cost.
Our Work
- AI Legal Assistant for contract drafting and review.
- Template Library with lawyer‑vetted business docs.
- Plain‑English Legal Guides anyone can understand.
- Volunteer Clinics (in development) for hands‑on help.
Impact
- 10,000+ users served
- $250K+ in legal fees saved
- Growing partnerships with accelerators & nonprofits
Build your independent practice. Serve clients who need you. Keep everything you earn.
Talking Tree is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit connecting founders, startups, and small businesses with experienced independent attorneys—at no cost to you and no platform fees, ever.
If you’ve left BigLaw or a corporate legal department to build your own practice, we solve the hardest part finding clients who are ready to hire.
Why Talking Tree
Talking Tree is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing enterprise‑grade legal operations tools to startups, small businesses, and underserved entrepreneurs at true operational cost. Our platform connects clients with experienced, independent attorneys who deliver top‑tier expertise at transparent, fair rates—without the overhead of traditional firm structures. Unlike most attorney directories and legal staffing platforms, we will not charge you to be found, nor will we take a percentage of what you earn. Talking Tree is nonprofit, mission‑driven, and funded independently, so when a client selects you, that relationship is yours.
How It Works
You pass a brief qualification interview, get listed in our vetted attorney directory, and will receive direct outreaches from Talking Tree clients who need legal support based on your area of specialty. No middleman. No cut taken. No monthly fees.
Who We’re Looking For
Experienced fractional commercial counsel running their own independent practice, with at least 5 years of experience and at least one of the following:
- 3+ years at an AmLaw 100 firm
- 3+ years as in‑house counsel at a Fortune 500 company
- 3+ years as General Counsel
- 3+ years as a federal government attorney
- Law professor
Attorneys on our platform commit to rates between $100-$500/ hr, making quality legal services accessible to the entrepreneurs who need it most.
