Virtual Law Firm in Texas
I recently ran across another virtual law firm in Texas called Texas Law on Demand .
The law firm is a solo practice run by the Patricia McCartney. Legal forms are offered with legal advice for a fixed fee. Fixed fees are reasonable. A Texas no-fault divorce costs $349.00 and includes a 20 minute phone consultation. Other transactions includes wills, powers of attorney, leases, deeds, and Protective Orders, and LLC formation. The service is designed for pro se litigants and the plaintiff is expected to file his or her own documents. We expect to see more virtual law firms like this in the future offering "unbundled legal services" over the Internet.
Regarding your comment that you expect to see more virtual law firms in the future, Virtual Law Office Technology (VLOTech) is beginning to set up virtual law offices for attorneys nationwide this summer. The technology is a secure, web-based, software as a service (SaaS) application which contains both a client side and an attorney's backend law office. It allows for more personal interaction with the clients online in a secure environment rather than unencrypted emails or online document-generating legal forms.
I have been practicing law from a completely virtual law office for over two years now using the proof of concept version of the VLOTech application. I have clients across the state of NC and handle all legal services through the secure vlo website. My vlo is called Kimbro Legal Services (www.kimbrolaw.com).
I have enjoyed the benefits of practicing law this way, and I'm excited to see that others in the legal profession are interested in offering unbundled, online legal services to the public as well.
