Joshua Pearce (@joshuapearce), Gabe McCoy (@gcoyboy) and Nat Pierce (@nrpierce) are the founders of @Briefcase.co. Briefcase provides Legal Essentials for Entrepreneurs. At its core, is a service with three primary goals: Provide direct access to business attorneys for guidance, offer high quality documents, and all for a flat fee at the lowest possible price. -
Joshua, Gabe and Nat recognized too many entrepreneurs and start-ups lack basic legal essentials due to high fees, lawyer rates, and are frequently unrepresented and underserved by the legal profession. They get it #lawyersareexpensive. That’s why they created Briefcase!

Q: How was the idea for your business was born:
A: As attorneys that serve businesses on a daily basis we have heard the complaints from entrepreneurs about dealing with law firms. For most businesses, direct access to a competent lawyer is perceived as too expensive. In founding Briefcase we wanted to match legal complexity and cost. “Essential” legal protection can actually be affordable and understandable for all businesses. We created this platform for that purpose.
Q: Were there any obstacles you faced early on?
A: We have faced some early criticism within our own profession. Others think what we were offering might have the effect of devaluing the $400 billion dollar legal industry. We see it differently. Our response has been to describe what Briefcase offers as “triage” of legal issues similar to the innovation that has been created in the medical industry, an industry which has clearly not been devalued by innovation. The law firm model is over 100 years old and has historically made access to attorneys a problematic and costly effort. The legal industry is ripe for innovation.
