(Visakhapatnam, India):
Keeping pace with the changing times, consumers across the world have been
looking to the internet for their legal needs. Four million people go online
per month to get legal advice. Numerous legal web sites have cropped up recently
in the western world, many of which serve as virtual match-makers between
lawyers searching for clients and clients in need of help. Unlike our western
counterparts, there has been no authentic legal portal for the Indian public
until now.
This void gave
birth to AdvocateKhoj - India's Dedicated Case Post System for Consumers (URL:
http://www.advocatekhoj.com) to help people find a well-qualified lawyer for
their legal issues. Consumers who are in need of legal assistance can present
their case by answering some simple questions about their legal situation,
"free of cost" on the AdvocateKhoj website without revealing his or
her identity.
Lawyers enrolled
with AdvocateKhoj would review these cases and send their replies. The consumer
can now view the responses from various advocates, check their background
information, education and experience, and then make an informed decision on
whom to engage for their case.
AdvocateKhoj uses
automated online technologies that match specific needs of a consumer with a
lawyer by matching geographically, and also based on a lawyer's various salient
attributes and legal expertise. The matching is fully automated and is based on
client-entered criteria, so there is no preferential treatment of any
particular lawyer.
The result: Prior to any money
changing hands, and with minimal time spent, consumers can present their cases
and in-turn get in touch with lawyers of their choice! According to Anoop
Vincent, co-founder, AdvocateKhoj, "It's obvious that consumers would embrace
this new and unique service as all of us prefer to make empowered and informed
decisions. The search for a well-qualified lawyer or a good client should be no
different."
