AccessSolicitor.com uses a specially-designed search function that allows consumers and businesses to find lawyers through a range of detailed criteria, including specialisation and location.
It also aims to guide consumers and small-business owners though the often daunting task of finding a lawyer, with legal guides covering everything from immigration and employment to business disputes and property.
Founder and chief executive Warren Smith initially practiced as a lawyer, at a leading City firm and then in-house, before leaving the profession to develop AccessSolicitor.com.
He says: “It was clear to me that there was a gap in the market. Finding a lawyer can be intimidating, and while there is a wealth of information out there, knowing how to use it is another matter. AccessSolicitor.com is there to help consumers and businessmen, whatever their needs.
“But we also want to help solicitors. The legal profession is undergoing radical change and everyone is feeling it. Following the introduction of the Legal Services Act, many are understandably worried about how they are going to fight off challenges from big brands entering the market. AccessSolicitor.com is an affordable and effective way to join the revolution.
“We have carried out extensive research, speaking to thousands of solicitors up and down the country, and really believe we have a site they can be proud off.”
