Sprintlaw

Sprintlaw is an innovative, technology-driven law firm based in Sydney, Australia, with operations extending to the United Kingdom and New Zealand. Co-founded in 2017 by Alex Solo and Tomoyuki Hachigo, the firm emerged from a recognition of the complexities and high costs of traditional legal services for small businesses and startups. Solo and Hachigo, both former lawyers from a top-tier Australian firm, envisioned a more efficient, affordable, and accessible legal model, leveraging technology to simplify processes.

Sprintlaw distinguishes itself by operating entirely online and offering fixed-fee pricing, providing transparency and predictability for clients. Their approach integrates custom-built technology, including a Legal Resourcing System (LRS), 'Sprintyard' Learning Management System (LMS), and Workflow Automation System (WAS), enabling their lawyers to deliver services more efficiently and at a lower cost than conventional firms. They have also embraced an 'AI-native' approach, deeply embedding artificial intelligence into their workflows to automate routine tasks and enhance client engagement.

The firm primarily serves startups, small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), and entrepreneurs across various industries such as technology, e-commerce, hospitality, and creative fields. Sprintlaw aims to make quality legal advice straightforward, focusing on commercial legal services like contract drafting, intellectual property protection, corporate governance, and employment law. They intentionally do not handle contentious matters such as disputes, litigation, debt collection, or personal legal matters.

Sprintlaw has achieved significant recognition for its disruptive model and rapid growth. Notable accolades include being named 'Innovator of the Year' at the 2019 Australian Law Awards, 'NewLaw Firm of the Year' in 2020 and 2021, and an 'Employer of Choice Award' in 2020 and 2021. The Financial Times listed Sprintlaw as APAC's fastest-growing legal business in 2022. By 2024, Sprintlaw had served over 8,000 clients globally, completing more than 13,500 engagements across its jurisdictions, and by 2025, their newsletter had grown to over 70,000 subscribers. In 2025, Sprintlaw also won the 'Innovator of the Year' at the UK Modern Law Awards.
