Our take
Despite the law being there to protect people, many do not have access to the help they need due to the cost and complexity associated with the legal process. This is what Rocket Lawyer is setting out to change, striving to make the law affordable and simple for everyone.
With financial backing and technical support from GV and its other partners, Rocket Lawyer has developed a cloud-based platform connecting millions of people with the legal help they need, at a fraction of the traditional cost. Using simple Q&A interviews and forms, as well as live consultations with attorneys on their mobile phones, tablets and desktop computers, small business owners, self-employed individuals and consumers can now manage a wide variety of legal situations with relative ease.
Thanks to strategic funding, Rocket Lawyer has been able to expand its platform, enhancing the digital tools it offers to customers and meeting the increasing demand for online legal services. The company is constantly evolving, rolling out new features like Rocket Tax™, which provides an affordable way for people to file their taxes with the help of a professional. As it continues to innovate, Rocket Lawyer remains committed to making legal and financial services more accessible to everyone.
