How Does Using an Attorney on Demand Work?

With ongoing economic uncertainty and increasing pressure from their companies to save money and work more efficiently, in-house departments are being stretched thinner than ever.

In this challenging environment, the services of an attorney on demand could allow many departments to do more with less without putting legal outcomes at risk.

But how exactly would an attorney on demand work?

Let's take a closer look at the Axiom model.

Connecting with an Axiom Attorney on Demand

Axiom is the world's leading provider of on-demand legal talent for a reason.

Our network of 14,000+ highly qualified lawyers and legal professionals spans multiple countries, allowing companies and organizations to access an attorney on demand in more than 30 languages for a wide range of practice areas. Unlike a legal temp agency more focused on volume than quality, we're able to craft bespoke, flexible legal solutions for nearly every major industry.

Connecting with an Axiom attorney on demand couldn’t be more straightforward:

  • Tell us more about your legal needs so we can help you identify the right legal professional.
  • Receive and review instant talent matches followed by a hand-curated shortlist within three business days.
  • Interview and start working with your Axiom lawyer.
Once you engage our attorney-on-demand services, you will have complete control to supervise your Axiom lawyer's work. However, we'll partner with you throughout the onboarding process to ensure they're meeting your high standards from the very start. You can engage your lawyer for as long as needed on a full-time or part-time basis. Many are also set up to work remotely, either entirely offsite or as part of a flexible hybrid arrangement.

What Industries Does Axiom Serve?

We work with top companies — including nearly half of the Fortune 100 — and organizations in the industrial, technology, financial, life sciences, and service sectors. We also provide attorney-on-demand services for law firms, and our lawyers often work alongside our commercial clients' outside counsel.

How Thoroughly Does Axiom Screen Its On-Demand Attorneys?

Axiom was founded over 20 years ago to fulfill the complex resourcing needs unique to in-house legal departments. Because we know our clients' standards are high, ours are even higher.

Not every lawyer who applies has the makings of an Axiom attorney. To ensure we're rigorous and meaningful screening and interview process that requires the submission of three references from past supervisors. Ultimately, just one out of every ten applicants makes the cut.

Axiom's on-demand attorneys include graduates of U.S. News & World Report top law schools and seasoned veterans of the AmLaw 200. They average 15 years of experience, and nearly 100% have in-house experience.

How Cost-Effective is Axiom?

We find that Axiom typically saves our commercial clients 50% to 75% over traditional law firms.

To ensure both value and predictability, the cost of an attorney on demand is based on either a fixed hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Specific pricing will depend on:

  • The lawyer: experience level, skill set, geographic region, and practice area.
  • The engagement structure: reserved flat fee (full-time, part-time) or variable hourly.
