Justice-as-a-Service: German Legal Tech Pioneer to Enter International Scene

With its service platform, the North German startup advocado has already been able to help more than 50,000 people and companies to obtain their rights. The founders have already collected more than 5 million euro in their homeland and are on expansion course throughout Europe.

”Next year, we will focus on the international business. This is particularly exciting in the light of the different characteristics and dynamics of the individual national legal markets. We are looking forward to this,“ says advocado CEO Maximilian Block.

In Germany, advocado, with its one-stop-platform, is regarded as a pioneer of client-oriented, digital business models. The number of foreign clients and prospects has grown significantly in the past two years – which is why the expansion of business in international markets is a logical next step. Investors like GPS Ventures and the former SAP Manager Dr. Wolfgang Kemna back advocado.

Veteran Maximilian Block himself has been committed to the recognition of Legal Tech as a regular sector for more than twenty years. “Legal Tech is in need of a strong lobby in Germany and a much better politico-economic understanding. That is why we continue to stand up for the strengthening, regulation and full recognition of the growing Legal Tech sector.”
