“Family and labor lawyers have been among those who have had the most work during the pandemic, the reality is that the number of divorces has increased, of family problems due to lack of wills, but also of people who have been dismissed unjustifiably which has driven the platform we have to grow, ”Castro said.
The spokesperson for Contacta Abogado indicates that part of the service provided on the platform is to position the online presence of law firms and professionals, so that users can get in touch with these types of professionals. In other words, it is a niche marketplace, where the platform lives through subscriptions that lawyers hire.
“Nine out of ten Mexicans search the web for additional information about services and professionals, so if you are a very good lawyer, but you do not have references on the web, the search made by web users will be limited and therefore you can lose potential customers, “says Castro.
In 2019, the legal technology market generated revenues of $ 17.32 billion worldwide, and the market for legal technology startups is expected to grow by 2025, reaching $ 27.82 billion, according to the firm of Statista analysis.
“The United States represents almost half of the world market, while Europe represents just over a quarter. Law firms around the world are continually forced to consider ways to lower their costs, while creating new methods that are different from the competition is an additional challenge. The introduction of legal technology solutions is one of the ways in which a company can save time and streamline work processes ”, the analysis firm specifies.
And although the option offered by Contacta Abogado is not new, it is one of the few options in the national market.
