Avvo Inc has unveiled Avvo Advisor which is used either online or through an iOS app. Users pay US$39 for 15 minutes of discussion, after entering their ZIP code and the kind of inquiry they have. Avvo’s founder and CEO Mark Britton said: ‘Avvo Advisor provides professional legal help to consumers on their terms, with clear pricing and on-demand delivery, saving significant time, money and hassle—the very things that keep many people from hiring a lawyer.’ 

Legal spend

Meanwhile, OmniVere has launched ‘OnePoint’, a service line which promises to ‘reduce corporate legal department and information technology spends, while simultaneously increasing predictability for the corporate executive suite’. This is done by having ‘one single point of reference for everything from structured data consulting to all facets of the EDRM [Electronic Discovery Reference Model] spectrum’.
