Question 5

Am I working for LawWurk or as a 1099 independent contractor?

Accepted Answer

No, you are not working for LawWurk as an employee or as a 1099 independent contractor. Instead, you are a part of our referral network, operating independently under your own LDA (Legal Document Assistant) registration and bond.

Here’s a detailed explanation of how this relationship works:

Independent Operation: As an LDA in the LawWurk referral network, you maintain complete independence in your professional operations. You provide legal document assistance services directly to clients using your own business name, registration, and bond.
Referral Network: LawWurk functions as a referral platform that connects clients seeking legal document assistance with qualified LDAs like you. Our role is to facilitate these connections by providing leads and supporting client acquisition efforts.
No Employment Relationship: Being part of the LawWurk network does not establish an employer-employee relationship. You are not an employee of LawWurk, nor are you engaged as a 1099 independent contractor. You retain full control over your work practices, service offerings, and business operations.
LDA Registration and Bond: You operate under your own LDA registration and bond, ensuring that your professional activities comply with the legal and regulatory requirements specific to your practice. LawWurk does not influence or interfere with your compliance obligations.
Client Engagement: When you receive a referral from LawWurk, you engage directly with the client. All service agreements, contracts, and communications are conducted between you and the client. LawWurk’s involvement is limited to the initial referral and facilitating the connection.
Service Fees and Payments: LawWurk handles payment processing from clients to LDAs to ensure secure and timely transactions. Once the client confirms satisfaction with your services, LawWurk disburses your fee. This process streamlines financial transactions while preserving your independent status.
Flexibility and Autonomy: As a member of the LawWurk network, you have the flexibility to accept or decline referrals based on your availability and expertise. You set your own rates, define your service terms, and manage your client relationships independently.
Brand Identity: Your professional identity remains distinct from LawWurk. While LawWurk provides a platform for referrals, you continue to build and promote your own brand. Clients recognize you as their legal document assistant, not as a representative or affiliate of LawWurk.
Professional Support: Although you are not an employee, LawWurk provides support and resources to enhance your client engagements. This includes marketing assistance, access to an interactive platform for project management, and ongoing technical support.
Compliance and Best Practices: LawWurk encourages all LDAs in our network to adhere to best practices and ethical standards in their professional activities. We support your efforts to maintain high-quality service delivery while respecting your autonomy as an independent practitioner.

By joining the LawWurk referral network, you benefit from increased client exposure and support without compromising your independence or professional identity. You continue to operate under your LDA registration and bond, ensuring compliance and integrity in your legal document assistance services. LawWurk’s role is to provide valuable referrals and support your business growth, enabling you to focus on delivering exceptional services to your clients.
