Connecting clients who need lawyers with the right lawyer for the job is one of the most important and rewarding services we provide. We have over 80,000 legal enquiries to our GTC Legal Hotline every year, and some of the questions we hear the most are: “Do I need a lawyer?” If so, what kind?” Where do I find one that’s available?” “How do I know that they’re any good?” Our Hotline lawyers have the answers – 7 days a week, 7AM to midnight.
Australia has one of the most fragmented legal industries in the world, with more than 18,000 law firms employing around 55,000 lawyers. Unlike top-tier firms with large in-house admin, accounts, IT and marketing teams, small to medium firms find it very difficult to achieve economies of scale, meaning much of the non-billable work ends up being done by the lawyers themselves. We are committed to using cutting-edge technology and centralised admin and accounting processes to free up the lawyers to do what they spent all that time studying to do – the law!
