As an attorney I'm a solo practitioner and, to be frank, I'm kind of tired of "going it alone." With this project, I think I could probably muddle my way through it myself, but I'd prefer to collaborate with someone that can pick up the slack when I have to put it down, etc.
Now comes the question ... what do you do in these situations? Where do you look? I have a robust network of legal professionals, but few tech folks. Do you get something started and then just try to bring someone on in a traditional hire fashion? How do you find folks to work with that are outside of your network when you can't bring any guarantees?
Meetup and other entrepreneur related events too, if you're starting from scratch.
But! If you get some semblance of traction going it's loads easier to attract talent even speculative talent.
Edit: here's an entrepreneur meetup I co-host https://www.meetup.com/Seattle-Startups-Open-Coffee/ - maybe we see you next Tuesday :)
