A New Model for Law Office Sublets: No Commission. No Brokers. Just Lawyers
New York, NY - April 9, 2025
The legal profession is quietly rethinking how it uses office space—and so are we.
After years of overpriced sublets, one-size-fits-all coworking, and brokers uninterested in small deals, attorneys are turning to one another. Solo lawyers and small firms want flexible, professional offices—without middlemen or hidden fees. Larger firms, meanwhile, are sitting on unused offices they’d gladly fill, if only there were a simple, secure way to do it.
At LookingForSpace.com, we listened. And now we’re offering the legal profession something new:
A self-serve, subscription-based platform that connects lawyers with lawyers—directly. No commissions. No brokers. Just attorneys finding the right space, or the right subtenant, with zero interference.
A Clearer, Simpler Way to Share Legal Office Space
Our new model does two things very intentionally:
1. It removes commissions.
Real estate brokers aren’t built for 150 sq. ft. sublets. And lawyers don’t need a third party to negotiate a one-room deal. We let attorneys communicate and transact directly. The result: more transparency, less friction, and no markup.
2. It connects attorneys with each other.
Every listing on our platform is legal-specific. No tech startups, no generic coworking listings—just law firms offering offices to lawyers, and lawyers looking for professional, law-ready environments.
Why We Made This Shift
We spent years working with law firms of all sizes. What we saw was clear:
- Lawyers are great negotiators. They just need better tools.
- Most brokers won’t touch small office listings. Too little money, too much hassle.
- Shared legal office space already happens every day—but mostly through word of mouth or outdated listing boards.
LookingForSpace.com formalizes the process. It makes it searchable. It makes it fast. And it makes it fair—because both parties are legal professionals, operating peer-to-peer.
Bar Associations: Let’s Partner
This new model isn’t just good for attorneys. It’s a natural fit for bar associations too.
By partnering with us, bar associations can:
- Offer members an easy, high-quality tool to find or fill office space
- Generate recurring, no-effort revenue from referred subscriptions
- Support local lawyers in a tangible way—especially solos and small firms
We handle all the technology, integration, and member support. You keep your brand front and center, and your members stay within a trusted legal network.
We believe bar associations are uniquely positioned to facilitate peer-to-peer office sharing, and we’re inviting forward-thinking leaders to schedule a demo and explore this opportunity.
Built for the Moment—And the Profession
The legal world is moving. Offices are downsizing, subleasing, and restructuring. Younger attorneys want flexibility. Older partners want efficiency. Everyone wants to save time and avoid the commission traps.
LookingForSpace.com meets this moment with a model that respects the way attorneys work:
- One flat monthly fee. No commissions. Ever.
- Direct communication between lawyers. Listings and inquiries go straight to your inbox.
- Exclusive to legal professionals—with two thoughtful exceptions.
While our platform is primarily built for attorneys and law firms, we do welcome:
- Other professionals seeking space inside law firm environments that are explicitly listed as “All Professionals Welcome.”
- Select executive suites and business centers that provide attorney-friendly office environments.
In every case, our priority remains the same: maintaining a trusted, professional network where the workspace fits the standards and expectations of practicing attorneys.
If you have offices to fill, or if you’re tired of chasing leads on general real estate sites, we invite you to try a smarter, profession-first alternative.
