Seeking job or "side hustle" that's completely online

[Sarah Bikes]

Do you know anyone who works from home in the legal field, or do you know anyone who would pay for online legal research and writing?  I'm an attorney licensed in Illinois, and a new mom seeking a lot more flexibility.  I'm looking for a way to make money just using a laptop and internet connection.  I have very strong legal research and writing skills, and not much interest right now in competing to spend the most time at the office.  If not, any other ideas that would produce a steady income stream?  Your suggestions are much appreciated, thanks!

Hi Sarah.  I'm an attorney and I telecommute.  Do you currently work at a firm, where you could propose some sort of arrangement that lets you do your current job working from home?

Otherwise, perhaps there is something in the legal publishing arena that might work?

One idea would be to contact some of the law offices near you and see about telecommuting - working from home doing legal research or writing for them in the capacity of a part time employee.  That has the advantage of being licensed in the state you're working in, versus doing something on the internet that may or may not be outside your realm of expertise.

EDIT: Beaten to it!  :D

There are quite a few online "ask a lawyer" websites, have you looked into any of those? This one has a "careers" section:
