Legal services entirely remotely in Sofia and in Bulgaria: an increasingly common practice

Online lawyer, legal services online in Sofia or anywhere in Bulgaria – sounds too modern, exotic, non-typical for the conservative guild of lawyers in our country. However, modern technology has allowed this to become an increasingly popular service. This article reveals some features of a lawyer’s remote work.

We are lawyers in Sofia, Bulgaria. Our client is in London, UK and we have never met. We receive an inquiry by email, we respond briefly, the client requests a consultation. We send him a proforma electronically, the customer pays. Depending on the legal and factual complexity of the questions, an answer is received after a few working days /sometimes we have to make inquiries, wait for the results of inspections/. The answer is again in writing, by e-mail.

So far, everything sounds relatively acceptable, however, it is only about a legal consultation, legal analysis, opinion.

Increasingly, however, much more significant legal actions are being performed entirely online. Client and lawyer do not meet at all. The authorization is carried out before a notary in the country where the client is located /because without a personal meeting the lawyer has no way to certify his identity/. Recently, electronic signatures have also become popular: clients who have them can authorize a lawyer even without leaving their home.

The habit of arranging a meeting, of having a conversation, of personally explaining the case still remains a must for many people. However, there are more and more people who prefer to save time. If it is about, for example, the acquisition of real estate, the conclusion of a preliminary contract for the purchase and sale of a property, including a construction contract and the purchase of a property off-plan or in construction: the client sends us the contract draft, within the day he receives an offer for the price of the legal analysis, corrections and notes on the important points, and within 2 days receives back in writing notes and suggestions for corrections. Communication with the seller/investor/broker is also far clearer when it is in writing, with everyone involved in the transaction copied.

In our practice of lawyers with over 18 years of experience, many of our clients are companies and individuals who have never set foot in our office. They prefer to communicate quickly, clearly and reliably in writing. The originals of documents / notarized documents, and any documents for court proceedings and even Bulgarian citizenship / are sent by courier. It’s a matter of personal choice on the part of clients that modern lawyers must take into account.

Fewer and fewer judicial and administrative proceedings require the person to appear in person, and in these cases, as lawyers, we accompany our clients. Portals such as www.egov.bg  and https://ecase.justice.bg  save an enormous amount of time for both lawyers and trustees, allowing the price of the lawyer’s service for some actions to be lower.

In case you don’t have the opportunity to come to us for a legal consultation or you simply prefer to work online: briefly describe your case to us here, and within the same working day you will receive a feedback: office@lexsofia.com
