Answers to your questions

Does the lawyer become an employee of my company?

When you use the services of Delegatus, you are working with entrepreneurial professionals who have chosen to work in complete freedom. In this way, our professionals retain their autonomy and professional independence. Delegatus is not an employment agency, and entrepreneurs do not become your employees. They are not entitled to the benefits offered to people employed by your organization.

Can the lawyer work from the company's offices?

Everything depends on your needs! Our lawyers can work from your offices, Delegatus’ offices or from home. We suggest that you have an open discussion to determine the best method of working to your mutual satisfaction.

Does the lawyer who joins my team have to use our technological tools?

Our lawyers are flexible and technologically agile. This means they can integrate with your technological environment if this facilitates collaboration. However, this is not a prerequisite, and we always make sure we find the solution that best suits your needs.

Is the nature and duration of the mandate determined in advance, or can it evolve over time?

The nature and duration of the mandate are agreed in advance in a service contract. As the mandate evolves, the nature and duration of the mandate can also evolve.

You seem to meet my needs, but how can I be sure?

Nothing beats talking it over with us. Give us a call or send us an e-mail, and we’ll be in touch to discuss your needs and challenges. This should allow you to choose the solution that fits the needs of your business and your team.
