A recent Constitutional Discourse report showed that 87 percent of lawyers believe technology is making their work easier and more efficient.
This is even as Lagos-based startup, Legarly.com, has entered into the Nigerian market with its cloud-based legal practice management platform, designed to transform how African lawyers, law firms, and in-house counsel handle their work, bringing automation, structure, and simplicity to the heart of legal service delivery.
Legarly.com is designed as an all-in-one, cloud-based platform tailored for lawyers, law firms, and in-house counsel. Its goal is to streamline the often cumbersome aspects of legal practice, handling everything from matter management and client onboarding to invoicing, secure document sharing, and automated reminders. With an intuitive interface and strong data security protocols, the platform aims to free legal professionals from the grind of administrative tasks so they can focus on strategic work and client advocacy.
Akintunde Dare, co-founder and CEO of Legarly.com, at the launch in Lagos, said, “We built Legarly to solve real problems that legal practitioners face every day. From disorganized files and missed deadlines to inefficient client tracking, the legal profession has long needed a solution that truly fits its workflow. Legarly.com is our answer: simple, powerful, and tailored to the African legal market.”
The launch comes at a time when the continent’s legal landscape is undergoing rapid change, driven by the need for speed, efficiency, and accessibility in legal service delivery. Legarly.com is already onboarding early users from across Nigeria and is seeking strategic partnerships with law associations, bar chapters, and legal training institutions to expand its reach. The startup offers a 30-day free trial and discounted subscriptions for early adopters, underscoring its bid to make legaltech accessible to solo practitioners, small firms, and corporate legal departments alike.
For Akintunde and his team, the platform’s appeal lies not just in automation but in its ability to instill order and structure into a profession that often wrestles with fragmented systems. Running on encrypted servers with regular backups and strict access controls, Legarly.com has been built with confidentiality at its core, reflecting the sensitive nature of legal work.
“Africa’s legal landscape is evolving, and technology must play a central role in that evolution. Our vision is to support thousands of law professionals, from Lagos to Lusaka, by giving them the tools to operate efficiently, serve clients better, and scale sustainably,” Akintunde added.
