Top LegalTech Startups London Guide #1 Best Legal Startups UK
The legal technology world is booming in the capital, which is still considered to be the “lawyer for the world” due to the collision of a world hub for legal services and tech so let’s look at some of the scale-ups lowering rates, increasing productive and generally improving the sector.
So, with that in mind, let’s look at some of the best legal tech companies making waves in the UK…
Lexoo
We here at Rainmakrr believe Lexoo have a claim to be the first ever LegalTech Startup London had, and almost certainly in terms of providing a marketplace for startups and companies to quickly find great lawyers AND to reduce lawyers business development time, effort and money which they can pass on to their new customers
OK, partly pass on, They can’t help it that they are lawyers…
It also gives us a chance to mention the UK’s nicest lawyer Adam Tucker who was Lexoo’s poster child on their home page banner due to being pretty much their highest user rated lawyer and the go to guy for marketplace and SAAS startups before their website redesign.
Halcyon days….

They decided to change it.

Is LegalTech a threat to the legal profession?
Actually, yes, Much of law, and thus client billings, is procedural and admin based. LegalTech reduces friction and will eradicate a large proportion of this, which is a good thing
Can you give an example of how LegalTech benefits me?
The most common example is the availability of legal templates. 10 years ago you would have had to call in favour of a friendly lawyer who would send a boilerplate agreement for you to use. Now these are mostly available free online for most simple agreements. That’s legal tech in action.
