Prepares contracts, forms and letters for attorney review. Workload peaks and dips, so a few fixed hours a week fit better than a full-time seat. It works in real estate and construction, where project documents change often. The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in Iowa, so this one is for residents there. The work runs in two set slots a week, agreed with the team at the start. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (CT). ## What you deliver - Prepare 10 documents a week from templates and client data for attorney review. - A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends - Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day - Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call ## What a week looks like - Wednesday: pick up the queue and confirm priorities - Midweek: two short working sessions of one to two hours - Friday: update sent before the company's end of day **Duration:** 16 weeks, renewable. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price. ## Tools Clio Word DocuSign ## Who fits - 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Paralegal, or the equivalent mix of roles - Comfortable working in Clio, Word and DocuSign - The work is done under the supervision of a licensed lawyer or accountant on the company's side. - Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate ### Nice to have - Used to short written handovers - A habit of asking one clarifying question early rather than five late ## Not included - Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so - Travel or work at a fixed location - A signature or opinion in your own name: sign-off stays with the company ## How you get paid - The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice. - Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable.
