History
The first recorded virtual law firm was "Woolley & Co" set up in 1996 in England by Andrew Woolley. The term became more clearly defined in 2004 in an article written by Joe Kashi defining exactly what it meant to be a virtual law firm. Although Virtual law firms are also often referred to as "Law Firm 2.0", the same is a registered trademark of FSB Fisherbroyles, a Limited Liability Partnership. The concept has since spread globally and is finding favour with clients seeking higher quality service, value, and mobility.
