How a Consulting Business Hired a Lawyer to Review an Internship Agreement in Louisiana

In 2026, a business operating in Louisiana sought assistance in reviewing an unpaid internship agreement. The client, a Delaware LLC specializing in AI automation and backend systems consulting, was bringing on its first intern, an engineering student from a local university. The existing agreement was deliberately structured in accordance with FLSA guidelines, ensuring that the internship prioritized educational benefits while outlining specific conditions regarding work, confidentiality, and non-solicitation clauses. As a result, the client received seven proposals from licensed lawyers with expertise in employment law, featuring flat fee bids ranging from $400 to $2,000. All bids were submitted to meet the client’s requested deadline of three business days, ensuring timely support for this important contractual review.
