the german legal industry moving (slightly) forward
Filed in archive Entrepreneurship by tj on April 15, 2004
Surprise, surprise even the change resistant legal industry has shown some kinds of entrepreneurship recently. germany still features a protected legal market were advertising of legal service is prohibited and fees (for courtroom services at least) are fixed and set by law. As more lawyers rushed to the market in the last decade and clients looked for cheaper alternatives, there are some new ways to provide legal services that have been established.

There have been quite some start-ups with such a concept in t last months, but JuraXX seems to be in the lead.

These forms do the trick in many cases and come cheap (5-15�). Also many smaller companies have set up dunning procedure services that use electronic documents to save costs for this procedure. But still Germany is worlds away from the divorce via online consulting...
