LawFi's platform offers simple and transparent point-of-service legal fee loans and guaranteed payment plans to finance attorney consultations, retainers, and legal fees.
LawFi seeks to make legal services more accessible and affordable for all.
LawFi is driven to bring more financial inclusion to the legal system. LawFi helps to solve longstanding Access to Justice problems through the use of financial technology and the deployment of capital into a new category of loans we are creating - the "Legal Fee Loan."
The biggest challenge still facing the legal industry is the fact that most people and small businesses don’t have access to affordable legal services or justice. Too many legal cases are lost or never answered because people can't find an affordable attorney or one willing to work out a payment plan.
Lawyers are hesitant to take on clients who can't show an ability to pay their fees timely. This causes barriers to accessing the legal services needed. The lack of financial inclusion leaves 166 million Americans who live paycheck-to-paycheck stuck in the pervasive Access to Justice Gap.
We built LawFi to help fill the massive Access to Justice Gap. We achieve our goal by providing the easiest, fastest, and most modern way to pay and finance legal fees. We've invented the industry's first proprietary decision engine that customizes legal fee loan products and guaranteed payment plans. Our solutions remove financial friction and barriers to accessing legal services.
We want to ensure everyone can access justice through affordable and accessible legal services, regardless of their situation or net worth. We are passionate about improving the legal and financial health of every person and small business in America.
By providing a proprietary Legal Fee Lending platform, fintech tools, and funding capital for lawyers to easily embed our solutions into their practices at every communication point with new and existing clients.

Lawyers have avoided offering any type of meaningful payment plans or financing because it may have violated their Rules of Professional Conduct.
It was not until November 27, 2018, that the American Bar Association (ABA) issued its formal opinion stating “Lawyers may participate in fee financing arrangements.”
