We’re on a mission to make sure everyone has access to the law, so that consumers and small businesses can get legal help for a fraction of the cost of a law firm.

Inequality in access to the law is one of the most pressing and important problems in society today. The current system for getting legal help is antiquated, slow, and expensive. Working with a solicitor or law firm is an offline experience and subject to a laborious and slow paper trail, and expensive hidden fees that prevent many people from ever getting fair and equal access to their legal rights.
Lawhive has built an online legal platform, allowing individuals and businesses to work with local firms and solicitors for a fraction of the cost of a local high street law firm. Lawhive's platform combines licensed, human solicitors with machine learning to automate a lot of the more repetitive work. This reduces the cost of accessing legal help by up to 60% less than the average high-street law firm or local solicitor.
By radically lowering the cost of legal services, Lawhive aims to help everyone on the planet access legal help and to make access to the law a utility, in the same way that access to the financial system is a basic right.

Being a small team means that we operate with an all-hands approach to tasks. Whilst there are clear and well-defined areas of responsibility, the ability to assist other team members on tasks means that knowledge sharing is consistently at the centre of everything we do.

We are creating something truly unique and are succeeding in our efforts to truly change the game for clients who are seeking legal assistance. By operating such a dynamic pricing model, we are currently able to offer fixed fees anywhere as much as 60% lower than some high street firms without compromising standard of work.

Our team of founders are absolutely fantastic. They truly live the spirit of ensuring that everyone feels supported and heard. They encourage rigorous experimentation and embracing failure and this means that as a team we are constantly striving for more without fearing repercussions of a sprint or experiment not ending up as hypothesised.

I have been at Lawhive for just under three months now, and in that time I have worked from both Spain and Sweden! It has been clear from the start that where and when you work is not really an issue, as long as you are able to deliver what you have said that you will.

Lawhive is my first software engineering job, and when I started I had no formal education in engineering, which led to some pretty mad imposter syndrome! The people at Lawhive really put me at ease and made it clear that their expectations of me were reasonable for my experience, and this has allowed my confidence to really increase. We also have a great time when we meet up for socials!

My manager is always happy to help and encourages me to ask questions if I ever feel stuck. He is very friendly and I feel more than comfortable asking for help. It's SO refreshing to have a manager that genuinely cares about me and how I blossom into my role.
