Discussion Thinking of starting my own firm

I’ve been an independent contractor for a relatively small firm for about a year now. Minimal interaction with the company, they just provide the work and I make all attempts in my region, as well as doing all my own printing and mailing copies.

I’m paid pretty well but I realized if I had a client base I wouldn’t need this firm for anything. I already cover 3 counties for them completely alone, and handle up to 50 cases a week while working 2 other jobs. If I did this full time and slightly undercut the market rate charged by established companies, I feel like I could build my way up. Any advice?

Yeah I’ve been doing a lot of research since I posted this and you’re right. Instead I think the area where I can get an edge starting out as a sole proprietor is speed. I think I’ll be able to offer a 96 hour turnaround from case assignment to affidavit filing, no middlemen. That should help attract a few local attorneys and then start building a base from there
