The company prefers early-morning hours, before a normal working day starts. ## What you deliver - Prepare 10 documents a week from templates and client data for attorney review. - A written update every Friday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked - Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call - A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends ## What a week looks like - Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window - Tuesday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked - Friday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread **Duration:** 8 weeks, renewable.
