LawBite

LawBite, the digital legal service platform transforming access to legal advice, has partnered with leading fintech, Cashplus, to offer the digital bank’s small business customers easy access to a suite of legal services and guidance. UK SMEs encounter on average eight legal issues per year and lose up to £13bn by not addressing them effectively.

By using the LawBite platform, Cashplus’ customers will have access to legal advice on all aspects of running and operating a company. The platforms’ shared ethos of simplicity and streamlined interfaces represent the future of professional services for time-pressed small business owners.

This partnership will also provide access to a team of business law specialists, on hand to provide customised legal advice to help owners solve business problems. This will include advice on employment contracts, commercial agreements and corporate governance – all available in a cost-effective and transparent way.

The LawBite platform and its services remove barriers to the accessibility and affordability of sound legal advice for businesses, all while making it easier to digest and fast to access.

Nick Biggam, Commercial and Business Development Director for Cashplus Bank said; “Our purpose at Cashplus has always been to break down barriers and make doing business as simple as possible for our small business customers. One of the major steps in doing this is putting, traditionally hard-to-access or expensive tools in easy reach. With the help of our digitally minded partner, LawBite, we’re doing this for vital legal support for small businesses.”

Clive Rich, CEO of LawBite said; “We are delighted to announce this partnership with Cashplus and to support them and their portfolio of SMEs from across all sectors. The core values of both businesses are so closely aligned, making the partnership such a good fit. We are looking forward to rolling out our platform to the Cashplus customer base, offering these businesses with high quality legal advice that may have previously been beyond their budget."
