When we talk about Legal Tech, we think first and foremost of lawyers. Yet more and more start-ups are seeking to develop activities in the bailiff niche. Faced with this, the profession is getting organized to offer customers appropriate digital tools.
According to figures from Village de la Justice, 13% of the Legal Tech market now targets bailiffs:
Contact platform
- Huiss Online enables private individuals to request a bailiff’s report by indicating their availability: the nearest bailiff who is able to carry out the report within this time slot contacts them and indicates his rates. In this way, the private individual can make appointments 7/7, 24/24, even when the office is closed.
- HuisAction claims to be the leading national network of bailiffs, with 80 offices and 180 bailiffs. The site offers several services, including a professional search engine.
