About Legal Lighthouse

Our Vision

• WHAT IS LEGAL LIGHTHOUSE’S MISSION?

  Simple but ambitious, our mission is to make law better for everyone.

  
  

  Many don’t know it, but there’s a crisis in the field of law affecting all stakeholders.
  
  Many independent lawyers are finding it nearly impossible to make a living, let alone find a reasonable work-life balance. This is particularly true among young lawyers, and is hardest felt by women. There are many reasons for this, but a central among them is widespread public dissatisfaction with traditional hourly-rate mandates on account of unpredictable costs.
  
  Legal Lighthouse seeks to catalyze a series of changes to the way that clients engage legal services, and efficiencies to how lawyers deal with client management. Our goal is to make the process less stressful and costly for all, contributing to a better overall experience.

• WHEN TO USE THE PLATFORM?

  Simply put, use legal lighthouse when you want a better legal experience.

  
  

  Let’s face it; there are certain problems that require legal solutions.
  
  At some point in every individual’s life, and at many points in the evolution of an organization, legal opinions (and often solutions) are needed. It is in these moments – when faced with decisions that have potential legal ramifications – that Legal Lighthouse is most valuable to clients. Our platform provides a safe space to find the right person with whom to discuss your situation and determine the best path forward, and the functionality to get there quicker. The lawyers found here have all pledged to make the legal experience better for clients, as they themselves are benefitting from Legal Lighthouse in a variety of ways.

• WHY DID WE CREATE THE PLATFORM?

  Honestly… because making a positive change in the world matter to us.

  
  

  Everyone involved in this initiative cares deeply about its social mission, and believes in its immense potential to drive positive change. From its beginnings in October 2015 to today all members of the Legal Lighthouse family have worked fully pro bono. The ecosystem of volunteers has been staggering, and the time given is incalculable in both quantity and impact.
  
  Our dedication is fueled by a common goal – we want to make law better for everyone. We think that we’re on the right track, but if there’s anything more that we can do to make this a reality please feel free to let us know.
