Advice sized for the self-employed
A freelancer rarely needs a full legal department, but faces the same problems as a company: a lease for the premises, clients who do not pay, notices from the tax authority and contracts signed in a hurry. A retainer for freelancers is scaled to a smaller volume of queries and to the most common areas.
You can also start with a one-off matter, such as a contract review or a claim, and move to a retainer later if it pays off.

Frequently asked questions
Is a retainer worth it for a freelancer?
It is when you sign contracts or invoice on credit with some frequency. If you only need one specific thing, a single engagement with a fixed quote is a better fit.
