Some services offered in Missouri include an advice session with a business attorney ($39), creating a last will and testament with an estate planning attorney ($295), legal counsel and review of a residential lease with a real estate attorney ($149), or filing for an uncontested divorce with a local family attorney ($995).
Avvo Legal Services is built on the success of Avvo Advisor, the company’s on-demand legal advice service, which boasts a 96 percent satisfaction rate. With Avvo Advisor, people simply select the category of their legal issue and the first available attorney in their area will call back within 15 minutes for a 15-minute advice session. In established markets, the average response time for Avvo Advisor is just 8 minutes; response times in Missouri are likely to begin at 15 minutes but decrease over time.
“When it comes to legal situations, many people are paralyzed by fear and end up not acting in their best interests when really, all they need is a small amount of legal advice from an experienced attorney to move on,” said Sachin Bhatia, chief product officer at Avvo. “We designed Avvo Legal Services to help people take control of their life situations by connecting them with the right lawyer they choose in the amount they need, through a modern online shopping experience.”
