For small-business clients whose Project shows Hiring settings. The Hires tab appears when Allow multiple hires is enabled.
Allow more than one hire
Each hire has a separate Project workspace and payment. A fixed fee applies to each hire; it is not divided between them.
- Open the hiring Project in Lawtrades Agent.
- Select Hiring settings beside the scope of work to expand it.
- Turn on Allow multiple hires and wait for the saved setting.
Return to a hire’s workspace
You can also use Open project on an eligible candidate card. Continue hire returns to unfinished hiring; it does not mean the hire is complete.
- Select Hires on the hiring Project.
- Find the lawyer you want to work with.
- Select Open project.
- Use Scope of work & hires when you want to return to the hiring Project.
Close or reopen recruiting
Existing offers and Projects continue when recruiting closes. Closing hiring is not a way to end an engagement.
- Open Hiring settings.
- Select Close hiring when you no longer need new applications or hires.
- To recruit again, select Reopen hiring beneath Hiring is closed.
- Wait for the confirmation before continuing.
If a hire or setting is missing
Check that you opened the hiring Project rather than one lawyer’s workspace. Hires appear once you sign an agreement. Availability also depends on the hire’s status and your access. If the page reports an error, retry it or contact help@lawtrades.com with the Project name.
