If you’re an attorney you may need a quiet, private space to work – or to meet with clients and witnesses. But what do you do if you work from home? Or what do you do if your witness is out of town? The reasons are many why an attorney may choose to rent weekly office space. Here are a few:

• Flexibility: Renting office space on a weekly basis allows attorneys to have more flexibility in their work schedule. They can rent space only when they need it and avoid paying for office space when they don't need it.
• Location: An attorney may need temporary office space in a particular location for a short period of time, for example, to attend a trial or meeting in a different city.
• Collaborative work: Attorneys may choose to rent office space on a weekly basis to collaborate with other attorneys or legal professionals, rather than working from home or a traditional law office.

Here are two more special cases where attorneys might need flexible office space:

• Depositions: A deposition is a legal proceeding where a witness or an expert gives sworn testimony outside of a courtroom, typically in a lawyer's office or a court reporter's office. The testimony is recorded by a court reporter, so you’ll have at least three people in the meeting. Booking flexible office space on a daily – or even hourly – basis could be the solution if you’re short on space.
• Real estate closings: a closing generally refers to the final stage of a transaction or legal proceeding, such as a real estate sale, a business sale, or a lawsuit. During a closing, the parties involved in the transaction or legal proceeding come together to finalize the deal or settlement. If your office isn’t convenient for your clients – or spacious enough – you can decide to rent an office space or a board room where the buyer and seller exchange funds and sign documents to transfer ownership of the property.
