OSC's Position
Despite any language that may seem to suggest otherwise, OSC is an office building on the web for freelance lawyers and modeled on a group of lawyers sharing office space. The OSC Managing Attorney is a technical position, and the rough equivalent of a receptionist and superintendent.  OSC is not an employer and is bound by agreements with freelance lawyers to offer their services and maintain their building in a particular form. 

All relationships formed for the purpose of delivering legal services are between two lawyers only, either Seth Azria or any other freelance lawyer and a retaining attorney. In collaboration situations, a freelance lawyer may also act as a retaining attorney.
