Lawr.co announces launch in Indian market

April 7, 2016 - PRLog -- Singapore-based lawyer finding service Lawr.co has officially launched its website, www.lawr.co, and looks set to take the Indian market by storm. This comes less than 2 months after Lawr.co announced the acquisition of legal portal Lawfarm in February.

Following its launch, Lawr.co's focus will be on matching lawyers with clients, who will have to initiate the process by first posting brief details about their case. Lawfarm will continue with efforts to develop and expand a full-fledged legal portal, with plans for redesign and restructuring in place to provide users with a more intuitive experience.

Lawr.co's co-founder, Jieyang Huang, says that the synergy between Lawr.co and Lawfarm will provide a conducive culture for the Indian market to embrace digital and online streams of law-related services.

"Lawr.co's launch is a timely one in this digital age where users are increasingly turning to online and digital services for their needs. The legal industry is ripe for digitisation, and one of the most challenging stages in the legal process for clients is the one right at the beginning - finding a lawyer they are comfortable with. Lawr.co aims to optimise this process, both for the lawyer and the client," says Huang.

At the same time, Lawfarm, legal content and Q&A site, will meet demand for the other aspect of law in the modern age - quick, informative, bite-sized advice. Lawr.co aims to be the one-stop shop for people on all legal-related matters.

With a comprehensive, all-encompassing service, whether it is helping people find quick answers to legal positions or matching them with lawyers if they want to pursue their case further, Lawr.co aims to bring legal access to people right in their homes.

As part of Singapore's leading venture builder, Sugar Ventures, Lawr.co has an established advisory board and many experienced technology leaders. With that, Lawr.co is built to be secure in financial standing and technological scalability.

Co-founder of Lawr.co and Sugar Ventures, John Fearon, added "This launch represents an incredible opportunity to improve the value of our services to the legal community in order to meet real legal needs."

As part of its launch campaign, Lawr.co's services will be free-to-use for a limited period for all users in India to seek legal advice or lawyers at any time.
