How a Software & It Services Business Hired a Lawyer to Review an Online Marketplace Agreement in Georgia

In 2026, a business operating in Georgia sought assistance with an existing online marketplace agreement. The client, which connects homeowners with local service contractors across the United States, needed a legal review of their Terms of Service and Refund Addendum to ensure they were compliant with relevant laws, particularly concerning liability, privacy, and tax obligations. The client was particularly focused on understanding the implications of operating nationwide while having no physical presence outside Georgia. As a result, the client received nine proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $249 to $2,000, all submitted to meet the client's deadline of over one week.
