Years of Experience Behind It

This Toolkit is for You If...

You have the skills, the experience, and the desire to freelance — but you're not sure how to set everything up professionally and protect yourself from day one.

You're ready to take on clients

But you don't have a professional services agreement, intake form, or invoice in place yet.

You want to stay on the right side of UPL

You know the unauthorized practice of law is a real risk, and you want a clear reference guide.

You don't know what to charge

You have no idea if your rates are too low, too high, or how to calculate a sustainable number.

You want to look professional immediately

Not in six months after building everything from scratch — right now, from your first client conversation.

You're not sure how to reach attorneys

Cold outreach feels intimidating and you don't know what to say to get a response.

You need a system, not more ideas

You're done researching and ready for something concrete you can actually put to use today and build a thriving paralegal business.

You already have the legal skills attorneys need.

What you've been missing is the business infrastructure to deliver those skills professionally

and this toolkit gives you exactly that.

Meet the Founder of Modern Paralegal Academy

Hi, I'm Christie Dunn!

I've spent 18 years working as a paralegal inside real law firms handling real cases and learning how attorneys actually operate. I know this profession.

I understand how legal workflows move and I understand expectations and professionalism.

I also understand something else. No one teaches paralegals how to freelance. There's no structured roadmap, no step-by-step foundation, no beginner friendly launch guide. So I created the roadmap I wish I had.

Freelance Paralegal Jumpstart is built from nearly two decades of real world legal experience - translated into a clear, simple launch plan designed specifically for paralegals. This isn't generic online business advice. It's structured for our profession.

Here's Everything You Get:

Client Services Agreement
New Client Intake Form
Rate and Pricing Worksheet
Professional Bio Template
Invoice Template
Client Onboarding Checklist
Scope of Work Agreement
UPL Boundary Reference Guide
Attorney Pitch Email Scripts - BONUS
Deadline and Discovery Tracking Log - BONUS
Business Setup Checklist - BONUS
Premium PDF Workbook

Testimonials

— Melissa T., Paralegal

“What I appreciated most was how practical everything was. It wasn’t hype. It was clearly created by someone who understands the profession. The structure helped me feel more professional and prepared."

— Danielle S., Litigation Paralegal

"I honestly didn’t expect to get this much clarity. It helped me feel confident about what to say and how to present myself. I stopped feeling stuck and started feeling ready."

— Alyssa R., Senior Paralegal

FAQ

What format does the Toolkit Come in?

You receive two formats: editable Microsoft Word (.docx) files for each of the 11 documents so you can customize them with your information, and a beautifully designed branded PDF workbook that combines everything in one professional reference document.

Do I need to be an attorney to use these templates?

No. These templates are designed specifically for freelance paralegals who provide services to attorneys. The Client Services Agreement and all related documents reflect the independent contractor relationship between a freelance paralegal and the supervising attorney client.

Will these templates work for my state?

The templates are written for general use and work as a strong starting point for paralegals in any state. As noted in the documents, we always recommend having a licensed attorney in your state review any legal agreement before you use it with clients, as laws and bar rules vary by state.

What practice areas do these templates cover?

All practice areas. The templates are written to be general-purpose and work across family law, litigation, estate planning, corporate, real estate, immigration, criminal defense, and any other area where paralegals provide support to attorneys.

How do I receive the Toolkit after purchase?

You will receive an email with your download link immediately after purchase. The toolkit is a digital product — there is nothing physical to ship. You can download and begin using your documents right away.

I just downloaded the free Blueprint. Is this toolkit different?

Yes, completely different. The Freelance Paralegal Blueprint is a planning checklist that helps you understand what steps to take. This toolkit gives you the actual professional documents — the contracts, forms, invoices, and templates — that you need to execute those steps and run your business. They complement each other perfectly.

I took the Jumpstart course. Do I need this too?

Yes — they serve different purposes. The Jumpstart course teaches you how to set up your freelance foundation and communicate your services. This toolkit gives you the actual documents to do it professionally — your client agreement, intake form, invoice, and more. Together, they give you both the knowledge and the tools.
