LEGAL TECHNOLOGY STARTUP
What is Lexoo?
Legal technology platform • Launched in June 2014. • Founder Daniel van Binsbergen is a former lawyer at international law firm. • Headquarters in London, United Kingdom. • Provides a lawyer-matching online marketplace where corporate business
may hire talented and forward-thinking solicitors. • Letting businesses compare fixed prices from lawyers. • Mission: help clients to find right lawyer and introduce transparency to the
market. • The source strives to be reputable, reliable and fair.
How it works? • Corporate businesses request their quotes and describe
legal query. • Lawyers write quotes. • Clients receive and compare quotes.
Users As in every B2B project, there are two sides of participants: corporate business and lawyers. • Lawyers With experience at large firms, but that have joined smaller firms that able to offer services for ½ of their former rates. • All lawyers are pre-screened and vetted by Lexoo.
• Start-ups and SMEs that required legal advisor.
Business model • Selecting a number of lawyers to provide fixed-price
quotes for the client’s work by staff. • Lawyers give a quote and as they know they have
competition, are compelled to give their best rate up front. • It is free to use service for clients, charging lawyers a 10%
marketing fee when the client pays them. • Investors are Forward Partners and Jonathan McKay
($400,000 seed round) and a Series A funding round.
Valuation and International presence • Over a 1,000 customers have already used the service
since launch just over a year ago and, if it manages to capitalize on this promising start, its goal of becoming the go-to location for lawyer comparison should be within reach.
• Considering other locations for doing business outside of UK.
