New Website!

This week we launched our 2nd website - https://www.thefutureoflaw.com

As lawyers, we are expected to work ridiculously long hours and put that extra effort in, often for no extra reward or pay. This is particularly true in the traditional style law firm.

At Mezzle, you are in control!! You organise your day, you dictate the hours you work, and most importantly your earning potential is uncapped. For example, if you bill around ￡300,000 a year in a traditional law firm, your salary would typically be around ￡90,000 to ￡100,000 a year.

At Mezzle however, this is flipped in your favour, so if you bill around ￡300,000 a year, you would earn around ￡210,000, virtually doubling your income!

Tired of the daily commute?

Fed up with waking up at 6am to catch a congested train, bus, or tube? Ever find yourself getting up early just to avoid traffic and sit at your desk eating your breakfast?

In 2020 the average travel time was 30min to and from work, and this time is only going to get longer with more congestion charges, and restrictions put in place.

In Q4 of 2019/2020, there were 1,892,564 trains planned, 3.8% canceled but a huge 34.4% delayed.

With public transport not improving any time soon, and law firms looking to bring their staff back to the office more and more lawyers are looking for alternative ways to serve their clients. Read on to learn how more and more lawyers are looking to work within a hybrid or fully remote model here

20+ Lawyers and growing

The Mezzle team has grown bigger than we could have expected, with over 20 lawyers across our locations in our first year.

We put this success down to three key areas:

1. Investment in technology - we give our lawyers the right tools to work from anywhere when they want.
2. Support - With over 15 different services to support each lawyer, we have them covered from marketing and IT to compliance and administrative tasks.
3. Location - We have a network of fantastic locations teamed up with WeWork allowing our lawyers to access state-of-the-art offices whenever they need them.

Mezzle Cloud

Making the switch to Mezzle was definitely a step up for our new lawyers.

All our new lawyers, take advantage of all that our cloud-based system had to offer.

The Mezzle Cloud was especially helpful, allowing our lawyers to keep track of everything in one place. Not to mention, the back-end system which makes it easy to connect with other lawyers and experts when needed.

Overall, our lawyers have found that using Mezzle allowed them to work more productively and more efficiently. Allowing them the freedom they have never had before.
