UK LegalTech Startup Lawhive Secures €50 Million Funding In Series B Round

The round was led by Mitch Rales, co-founder of Danaher Corporation, with participation from TQ Ventures, GV (Google Ventures), Balderton Capital, Jigsaw, Anton Levy, and LTS.

This follows Lawhive’s €37.9 million Series A within the past year. The company’s annual revenue now exceeds €29 million ($35 million), a sevenfold increase over the last year.

Pierre Proner, CEO and co-founder of Lawhive, says: “The pace of growth over the past year reflects the scale of the problem we are tackling. Everyday legal matters remain costly and unpredictable for millions of people, while lawyers are held back by manual processes that limit their efficiency and scale of their legal practices.

“AI is finally making it possible to achieve a breakthrough in delivering consumer legal services with the speed and consistency people expect. The reaction from lawyers and clients in the US has been exceptionally strong, and this funding allows us to build on US momentum and scale our model.”

Founded in 2021, Lawhive is an AI-native law firm that uses agentic AI to transform consumer legal services. Its platform combines a network of lawyers with AI-powered workflow tools to automate routine tasks, boost efficiency, and make legal support more accessible.

Lawhive targets one of the largest and most underserved legal markets. In the US, the consumer legal sector generates €169 billion ($200 billion) annually, yet research shows up to €848 billion ($1 trillion) in legal needs go unmet due to cost, backlogs, and manual processes.

Schuster Tanger, co-founding partner of TQ Ventures, said: “What sets Lawhive apart is its business model scales as quickly as its technology and operating leverage improves. Cutting-edge agentic AI, strong fundamentals and a clear opportunity to capture a fragmented market are rare. We believe Lawhive, with its remarkable pace of domination thus far, is on track to be the global champion of consumer law.”

The company aims to streamline everyday legal issues like family law, landlord/tenant disputes, and employment law which are often slow, expensive, and unpredictable, while helping lawyers overcome administrative burdens and outdated systems.

Mitch Rales, co-founder of Danaher Corporation, says: “Lawhive is democratising legal services by providing access to high quality and transparent consumer legal services. I’m excited for my business building firm, New Bearing, to partner with Lawhive’s talented management team to build operational excellence into everything that Lawhive does for consumers and lawyers. Pierre, his co-founders and I share a mindset that we are building Lawhive for the next decades ahead of us.”

Lawhive is an AI-powered consumer law firm revolutionizing legal services.
