Built-In Practicum on Remote Freelancing
6 full weeks dedicated to learning how to earn as a freelancer—covering platforms, profile optimization, pricing, client pitching, and retention.

Can I get remote freelance work after doing this course?

At LawSikho, our students typically fall into two categories: those who already have strong legal skills, and those who are still developing them. Our goal is to empower every learner to start earning from their knowledge as soon as possible.
For students with professional-level legal skills, we offer opportunities in areas like contract drafting, HR compliance, and work with international business clients.
Our focus is simple: help students land their first three clients. We guide them in crafting standout proposals and navigating client interactions. By the time they’ve completed a few projects, most students are confident enough to secure clients on their own.
They also build credible CVs and online profiles with real-world experience and testimonials—assets that open doors to long-term opportunities.
Getting started is often the hardest part, and we work hard to remove that friction. We've seen law students earn over $1,000 per month while still studying. Some make $500 in their first month doing freelance gigs part-time. Others, after a year of consistent work and skill-building, now earn $10,000 per month. Even students who start small—at $300 a month—see steady growth as they learn new skills, improve their profiles, and pitch for better-paying work.
Between April 2021 and March 2025, LawSikho created over 27501 freelance opportunities. These gigs helped thousands of students earn a real income. The total value of work secured through our platform exceeded INR 9.96 crore (USD 1.2 million).
Note: These figures reflect only the projects we directly facilitated or supported. Many students have gone on to secure additional freelance work independently.
