We’re excited to share that Montage Legal Group’s founder and owner, Laurie Rowen, was recently a featured guest on the Blended Workforces @ Work podcast, hosted by organizational strategist and thought leader, Karan Ferrell-Rhodes.
In Episode 36 “How Law Firms Are Using Freelancers to Scale,” Laurie dives into the story behind the founding of Montage Legal Group, sharing how her vision for a more flexible legal workforce became a game-changing solution for law firms and attorneys alike. Laurie discussed the early days of Montage—how she and co-founder Erin Giglia turned an idea into a thriving network of experienced freelance attorneys—and how the model has evolved to meet the changing needs of law firms in today’s hybrid and remote work environments.
