๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ I would like to launch a digital platform (web + mobile) that could make legal services more accessible, transparent, and convenient. Something like a โdoctor on callโโฆ but for legal services. Possible features: โข ๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐๐จ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ with a lawyer in real time or ๐๐ง๐จ๐ง๐ฒ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ โข ๐๐จ๐จ๐ค ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ญ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ instantly or schedule later โข ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ฑ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐๐ข๐ง๐ : free consultation for leads, flat fee, hourly or subscription based โข ๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ก ๐ฅ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐ซ๐ฌ by practice area, experience and location โข ๐๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ง๐ญ ๐ซ๐๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ฐ๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฌ on lawyers โข ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ค ๐๐๐ซ๐ค๐๐ญ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐๐๐: Post a legal issue and let interested lawyers submit quotes and proposals โข ๐๐ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐๐ ๐ to help users identify their legal problem first, and questions to ask before going into a consultation โข ๐๐ฆ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐ฒ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ญ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง feature for urgent situations. E.g., arrest, bail, domestic violence, etc. All lawyers signing up would, of course, be licensed and verified practitioners. The goal is simple. Make legal advice easier to access. Right now, many people donโt see a lawyer because: โข they donโt know who to call or who to choose โข they donโt know how much it will cost โข they think itโs too troublesome or intimidating Technology can solve that. Just need the right positioning... 1positioned as a business development platform for law firms... firms subscribe for exposure and bd services, rather than touting or fee sharing. But hereโs the real question. Would you use it? Or would you fight it? Curious to hear what fellow lawyers, founders and consumers think. ๐. ๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ช๐ด ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ข๐ต๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ข๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ. #lawyeroncall
