Legal Connect Questions and Answers

LEXNOVA Legal Connect helps individuals and businesses describe their legal requirements and explore potentially suitable lawyers, advocates, legal consultants, or law firms from the LEXNOVA network.

No. LEXNOVA is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or legal representation. Legal advice is always provided directly by the independent legal professional you are connected with.

You describe your matter through our guided request form. We review factors like practice area, location, jurisdiction, and language, then — where appropriate — help facilitate an introduction to a potentially suitable professional. See our full How It Works page for details.

Potential matches are identified by reviewing your requirements against professional profiles in our network. Every potential match is reviewed by a person before any introduction is made — this is never fully automated.

Professionals in our network are expected to be licensed or authorized to practice in their relevant jurisdiction. Authorization can vary by specific court or authority — for example, DIFC or ADGM, as noted above — so we recommend confirming a professional’s current license and scope of authorization directly with them before proceeding.

In some cases, yes — this depends on the nature of your matter and will be discussed with you during the review process.

We ask that you avoid sharing highly sensitive information (passwords, banking credentials, confidential documents) in your initial request. What you do share is used to help identify potentially suitable legal professionals.

Not at this stage. Our initial request form does not currently support document uploads — please don’t send confidential documents until you are working directly with a legal professional.

You'll receive a confirmation that your request was received. Our team will review the information you provided and, where appropriate, identify potentially suitable legal professionals from our network.
