About Lawhive

We're on a mission to make sure everyone has access to the law.

Lawhive is an online platform for consumers and small businesses to get legal help for a fraction of the cost of a law firm. Our platform combines regulated human lawyers collaborating alongside the world's first AI lawyer, specifically built for consumer legal work.


Equal access to the law is one of the biggest and most pressing unsolved problems in society today. We're passionate about levelling the playing field and believe access to the law should be a basic utility in society.


Our AI lawyer Lawrence is built on top of our own fine tuned LLM and recently passed the UK's bar exam equivalent.


We're backed by some of the top US and UK VC funds, including Google Ventures, Balderton Capital and TQ Ventures. We recently secured a $40M Series A funding round to facilitate international expansion and to grow our team, representing one of the five largest Series A rounds in Europe for 2024.
