|---|
| Credentials | No formal law degree required; negotiation skills emphasized | Law degree and state licensing required |
| Work Environment | Independent, often remote, working with clients and insurance companies | Law firms, courts, and client meetings in offices or courtrooms |
| Industry Usage | Freelance negotiators often assist with settlement negotiations | Represent clients in legal proceedings and court cases |
