The Wave of the Future

- Reuters

We’re building a better law firm experience for attorneys and clients.

But don’t just take our word for it. Here is what our attorneys highlight when asked why they choose to practice at Scale.

Quality

The quality of the team is the #1 reason our attorneys work here. With thousands of applications in a few short years, we’ve been selective about who joins.

Efficiency

Our tech-first, efficient platform lets attorneys take home the majority of the value they create, which is high on the list of why our attorneys join the firm.

Collaboration

Despite our remote-first platform, two-thirds of our attorneys regularly work in teams of four or more attorneys.

Fulfillment

We ask our attorneys to give us a regular NPS score (does your firm know what that is?), and we consistently rank “excellent,” the highest category.

Success on your terms.

Own the value you create.

Traditional firm fees are mostly waste: costs and profit that do not benefit the average client or attorney. We’ve turned that model on its head, and pass through the majority of the fees collected to the attorneys doing the work. That simple but fundamental switch reflects a completely different way of doing things.
