The co-operation between AccessSolicitor.com and APIL includes content, membership verification, search and promotion.
On content, Access Solicitor will promote APIL’s easy to understand personal injury legal guides and explore the co-writing of more with APIL to help personal injury victims further.
On data, Access Solicitor has already collected accreditation information self-published by 5,500 lawyers and continues to expand this by 5,000 lawyers per month. Cross referencing the data that Access Solicitor collects with APIL enables APIL to police the use of its mark, and simultaneously ensures the accuracy of APIL membership information that Access Solicitor publishes.
On search, Access Solicitor will draw on APIL’s personal injury expertise to optimize the architecture of its on-site legal guides and also specialist personal injury lawyer selection tools.
And finally, on promotion, Access Solicitor will endorse the APIL accreditation as a specialist quality mark to victims of personal injury.
APIL’s chief executive, Deborah Evans, says: “We are very pleased to be working with Access Solicitor on such a broad range of initiatives that will help both victims of personal injury and APIL member lawyers.”
AccessSolicitor.com’s founder and chief executive, Warren Smith, says: “Access Solicitor, just like APIL, has a primary objective of helping the client. By Access Solicitor and APIL working together what we can achieve is greater than what we can achieve independently.”
