Sprintlaw sprints into UK to disrupt legal market

The Australian online law firm sets focus on the UK to provide legal services at fraction of the price to startup and small business

Australian online law firm Sprintlaw is ready to expand its business in the UK with its disruptive model of providing legal services at fraction of the cost.

Sprintlaw focuses on the startup and small business legal market and provides more than 100 fixed-fee legal services that cover a wide variety of business needs.

The tech-powered firm offers automating tasks such as business set up, commercial leases, contracting, IP, franchising, etc. Sprintlaw also offers subscription services and operates under a legal consultancy model.

The firm had raised $1million in funding earlier this year before expanding its business to the UK, where its operations would be headed by Adil Khan, the former Lexoo legal network manager.

The group of investors include former Smartgroup CEO Deven Billimoria, who will also serve as an advisor to the company.

"We're excited to launch in the UK… and leverage our innovative tech-enabled model to help UK small businesses get quality legal services at a fraction of the cost of traditional providers. There's a strong appetite for affordable, online legal services in the UK market. We're already seeing significant interest from both new UK clients as well as our existing Australian clients who have a UK presence," Sprintlaw's co-founders Alex Solo and Tomoyuki Hachigo said in a joint statement.

Adil Khan who previously worked in private practice at Canadian law firm Blake Cassels & Graydon in Vancouver said: "I'm looking forward to bringing our novel legal services model into the UK market. Sprintlaw is a unique offering that truly blends tech and law in a manner that SMEs have been seeking for years."

Sprintlaw was founded in Sydney back in 2017 and has since helped more than 20,000 Australian businesses with their legal needs.
