Court Buddy is a startup that aims to democratize access to legal services by connecting clients with experienced attorneys at pre-negotiated, affordable rates. The company operates in the legal services market, primarily serving individuals and families who need legal assistance but may not have the financial means to hire traditional law firms. Court Buddy offers a wide range of legal services including family law (divorce, child custody, spousal support), criminal defense (felonies, misdemeanors), landlord-tenant disputes (evictions, real estate), business law (contracts, disputes, patents, startups), and personal finances (debt collections, bankruptcy, tax issues).

The business model is straightforward: clients can purchase legal services one at a time, allowing them to manage costs effectively. For example, a client can buy a legal consultation and then decide to add services like having a lawyer write a letter or file paperwork. This à la carte approach makes legal services more accessible and transparent, as clients know the costs upfront.

Court Buddy makes money by charging clients for these individual legal services. The company has pre-negotiated rates with its network of attorneys, ensuring that clients receive quality legal assistance at a lower cost compared to traditional law firms. This model not only benefits clients but also provides a steady stream of work for attorneys who are part of the network.

The startup has received positive feedback for its ease of use, affordability, and the quality of legal representation it provides. It has also been recognized with awards for improving access to legal services, further validating its impact in the market.
