We are very happy to share a new set of options within our existing suite of legal services, with 22 new services in the areas of Business & Employment. These new services will help both people growing their business and hiring new employees, and professionals seeking preventative protection so they can pursue any job they like without legal concerns. And we are pretty excited about it. Most of the new additions are in the form of legal documents that consumers can create with the assistance of a lawyer, and brings our total number of offered services to 70. But most importantly, this expands our ability to empower consumers as they navigate the legal landscape.
“We are on a mission to make it easier for people to get the help they need,” said Nischal Pathania, Group Product Manager, “and the entire team is passionate about it. We’re working hard to introduce new services as quickly as possible and this is a big step towards our longer-term vision of having hundreds of options available.”
The new Business & Employment services include:
Employment contracts: Have a local, experienced attorney help draft your contract, and get start-to-finish assistance.
Non-disclosure agreements: Need an airtight NDA? Get a draft document to use, along with help from a local attorney (includes a 30-minute intro call), or have an existing document checked for holes.
Partnership agreements: A business lawyer will work with you to create your partnership agreement (or review an existing agreement) so that it meets the needs for your state and situation.
We built Avvo Legal Services upon the success of Avvo Advisor, which enables people to connect with the first available attorney in their area for a 15-minute advice session. Our goal is to make getting legal advice is even easier, with a variety of options across not only business and employment, but also topics like real estate, immigration, and family/divorce planning. See all the new options by having a look at Business Legal Services and Employment Legal Services, or start from the top by going to the Services main page.
