What is Lawhive?

Question 6

Does my solicitor need to be local?

Accepted Answer

While it may seem convenient to work with solicitors near you, it is very rarely necessary. Many solicitors with clients from a distance, using email, video conferencing, and other digital tools. This isn’t a bad thing and can be especially helpful if you're unable to travel or prefer to work with a solicitor who is located elsewhere in the country.
The pros of working with an online solicitor:
Accessibility: An online solicitor can be accessed from anywhere in the world. This means that you don't need to be in the same city or even the same country as your solicitor to receive legal assistance.
Convenience: Online solicitors offer greater flexibility than traditional high street firms. You can communicate with them at any time, from any location, using digital tools like email, instant messaging, or video conferencing. This makes it easier to fit legal work into your busy schedule.
Cost savings: Online solicitors typically have lower overheads than traditional high street firms. This means that they can pass on those savings to their clients in the form of lower fees. In many cases, working with an online solicitor can be significantly cheaper than working with a local solicitor.
Expertise: With an online solicitor, you can find an expert in your specific area of law regardless of location. You have access to a wider pool of solicitors with a variety of specialisations and levels of experience.
Faster service: Working with an online solicitor can be faster than working with a local solicitor. With online communication tools, you can receive updates and documents in real-time, without the need to wait for appointments or snail mail.
