Rest The Case Introduces Virtual Chief Legal Officer (v.CLO) Service: A Game-Changer for Legal Access and Support

Pune: In a pioneering move, Pune-based start-up Rest The Case, a Legal Aggregator Platform, has launched a groundbreaking service, the Virtual Chief Legal Officer (v.CLO). This innovative offering aims to fast-track access to legal support across India, breaking through geographical boundaries and providing seamless legal services to businesses.
The v.CLO service acts as a one-stop solution for a wide range of needs, including Chartered Accounting (CA), Company Secretary (CS), and legal services, with a particular focus on startups, MSMEs, and SMEs.
Founder and Director of Rest The Case, Ms. Shreya Sharma, explained the necessity for such a service: “The Indian legal system, with its maze of regulations, has long struggled with accessibility. Despite the digital transformation occurring across various industries, the way people and businesses seek legal assistance remains entrenched in traditional practices. COVID-19 demonstrated that many processes can be digitized, including legal services. Our v.CLO solution taps into the power of technology to provide real-time legal advice and oversight, addressing critical issues that businesses face every day.”
The v.CLO service is designed to support startups, MSMEs, and SMEs by providing flexible and cost-effective legal assistance, reducing the need for a full-time, in-house legal team. Ms. Sharma elaborated on this key focus, noting:
“These companies often need quick legal help for tasks such as compliance, company incorporation, basic legal documentation, GST registration, and more. The v.CLO service offers a cost-effective solution by providing on-demand access to expert legal professionals without the expense of maintaining a full-time legal department.”
Ms. Sharma emphasized the expertise of the appointed v.CLO professionals: “Our v.CLO professionals are highly skilled and experienced, offering tailored legal support that helps businesses manage their legal needs efficiently. This service allows companies to focus on growth and scalability while leaving their legal concerns to us.”
While the transition from traditional to digital legal processes may pose some challenges, Ms. Sharma remains optimistic:
“With perseverance and a willingness to adapt, we believe the legal industry is on the brink of a transformation. The full potential of v.CLO will unfold in the coming months, and it may set a new global standard for how legal systems operate.”
Rest The Case is committed to driving change in the legal industry, making legal services more accessible, affordable, and efficient for businesses across India.
