We had a special concern for which we wanted legal advise. Having spoken to many lawyers already, we knew this was a tough one. But once we approached Legistify, we were pleasantly surprised with the kind of commitment shown by the entire team. In fact, one of the co-founders of Legistify, who happens to be a Domain expert stepped in and researched on our query, since it was one without a precedent in India. In a couple of days, we had a detailed explanation and the way forward. The entire process was smooth and quick. Very happy with Legistify and would strongly recommend trying them out.
