A fully remote law practice is possible with Ontra

Our clients look to Ontra to manage their high-volume transactional needs so experience negotiating routine contracts, such as non-disclosure agreements, is desired. While our primary focus is corporate transactional work, please submit your resume if you have experience outside of corporate law as we may have future client needs that match your expertise.

The volume of work with Ontra is generally most conducive for lawyers who are looking to supplement or scale their own solo practice or boutique law firm. However, we also partner with a variety of other professionals including working parents and entrepreneurs. The commitment to Ontra equates to about 15-25 hours per week, but this can be scaled up to full-time.

Our legal partners can expect to negotiate and manage standard commercial agreements for clients in Asset Management, Real Estate, and Healthcare. These contracts can vary depending on the clients’ needs, but typically include investment-related non-disclosure agreements, engagement letters, vendor contracts, and other managed service agreements.

Our platform is web-based and can be accessed from anywhere. All you need to access your Ontra work stream is a reliable internet connection and a current version of Microsoft Word. Additionally, any device you use to access our platform will need to meet our security requirements.

No, our legal partners are all independent contractors. Ontra handles a variety of administrative tasks for our legal partners (including invoicing, client billing and collection, and business development), but the legal work and advice is exclusively provided by you.

Ontra lawyers are presented with available client engagements based on a variety of factors, including relevant experience, time zone, and team dynamics. Legal partners then select their engagements based on their availability to service a client’s ongoing contract needs and interest in that particular client.
