From Billable Hours To 9to5Docs.Com: Why One Tax Lawyer Is Building The Future Of Startup Legal Tech - Above the Law
"Miller, a former international tax attorney who cut her teeth in big corporate multinationals, never intended to become a tech founder. After a move back to her hometown of Lake Charles, Louisiana, she opened a solo practice, dealing with the same "bottleneck" that plagues almost every small firm lawyer: the realization that there are only so many hours in the day to sell."
""I thought, there's got to be a better way to do this. People needed information, and they didn't need to pay $500-plus an hour to get it." The Pivot: From Practice to Platform Miller's solution is a new platform, 9To5Docs.com - currently in soft launch - designed to bridge the gap between early-stage startups and the attorneys who serve them."
Marla Miller is a former international tax attorney who transitioned from solo practice to founding 9To5Docs.com after identifying a bottleneck in small-firm legal delivery. The platform automates repetitive legal tasks for early-stage startups, offering standardized LLC and Delaware C-Corp formation, SAFE notes, and employment agreements. 9To5Docs.com targets predictable legal needs that are ripe for automation, lowering costs and providing access outside billable hours. Miller envisioned the product after seeing online process automation at SXSW and aims to bridge startups and attorneys by delivering affordable, scalable legal documents and workflows currently in soft launch.
