An immediate stimulus package of up to AUD$1,000/GBP£500/USD$600 for eligible law firms to promote their legal services to their local community.
MELBOURNE, Australia & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#law--LawTap, which provides appointment booking and scheduling for law firms, is proud to announce a $250,000 COVID-19 stimulus package to support small law firms across Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Funding is available immediately.
"In the past three weeks, LawTap booking data shows that the average small law firm has experienced a 43% increase in 'socially distant' appointment options - this means phone calls, Skype, Zoom, and where appropriate, appointments at the client's location," said LawTap CEO and co-founder Seamus Byrne.
“We know local communities rely on small law firms to solve their personal and business problems. Ensuring access to justice remains available is more important than ever,” said Seamus.
Seamus anticipates key areas of demand in family law, wills and estates, and small business law, particularly with regard to accessing government stimulus packages, tax breaks, and restructuring to avoid insolvency. Criminal law may also be in demand as people deal with new lockdown laws, and what they mean for freedom of movement. As rental pressures increase, property and real estate lawyers will be essential to assist renegotiation and avert eviction.
“LawTap is determined to play its part,” said Seamus. “This stimulus package is our way of directly and meaningfully supporting small law firms, and their employees, as they strive to remain accessible and support their local communities. We’re all in this together.”
