Introducing Legavee
At Legavee, we believe that access to justice is a fundamental right, one that should not be hindered by outdated systems, overwhelming paperwork, or the rising costs of legal services. Our mission is to transform the way legal work gets done, starting with the family law sector, where the stakes are highest and the pain points most acute.
Why Legavee?
The UK family court system is in crisis. Recent research shows that private law cases now take an average of 47 weeks to resolve - almost double the statutory target - leaving more than 110,000 cases in backlog and 4,000 children were trapped in family law cases in December 2024 alone. Legal aid cuts have left 67% of parties unrepresented, and rising court fees are compounding the strain on families and practitioners alike.
These are not just numbers - they represent real people facing some of the most difficult moments of their lives. We believe technology can, and must, play a role in helping families move forward.
Our Approach
Legavee is building Matter an AI-powered legal assistant designed to accelerate, simplify, and secure the work of legal professionals and their clients. By leveraging advanced document intelligence, secure collaboration, and compliance automation, Matter empowers lawyers, mediators and individuals to:
- Accelerate document review: AI rapidly analyzes and organizes large volumes of case files, freeing up solicitors to focus on strategy and client care.
- Streamline communication: Secure, centralized hubs keep all parties aligned, reducing delays and misunderstandings.
- Manage growing caseloads: Automation of routine tasks and compliance checks helps legal teams handle more cases with less stress.
- Enhance access to justice: By lowering administrative burdens and costs, we help make legal support more accessible to families who need it most.
Looking Forward
We know the challenges are significant. The current system’s delays, resource constraints, and rising costs have created what experts call a “perfect storm.” But we are optimistic. With the right technology, we believe we can help restore hope and deliver better outcomes for families, practitioners, and society as a whole.
Our goal is to partner with law firms, mediators, and innovators across the legal sector to build a future where technology and human expertise work hand in hand-where no family is left waiting for justice.
Join Us
We’re just getting started. As we launch Matter, we invite legal professionals, technologists, and advocates to join us on this journey. Together, we can build a legal system that is faster, fairer, and truly fit for the families it serves.
