Atticus

At any given time, 15 million Americans are experiencing a crisis that requires urgent legal help. The right assistance could transform their lives. But most never get it. We built Atticus to reinvent a broken space: the $100 billion market for legal services for individuals. We use a marketplace model to bridge the gap between the many people who need expert help and the few great lawyers who offer it. To our clients, we're the legal equivalent of a primary care doctor: We diagnose their issue, advise them on their options, and, if needed, refer them to a specialist — a vetted, top-tier lawyer who can win their case. To lawyers, we operate as a broker: we send them pre-vetted clients and earn a percentage of what they make from each successful representation. And we're doing it unlike anyone else — as a mission-driven B Corp offering free help to ordinary people, driven by new tech and on track to build a huge and profitable business.
