FLENA Conference Leigh McBean

🎙️ “How do you pay legal fees… when all your money is tied up?” It’s a question most people don’t think about — until they’re in it. In this conversation with Leigh from JustFund, we unpack a hidden pressure point in family law and estates that impacts real people, every single day. 💡 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀: ↳ The biggest issue isn’t always lack of assets — it’s lack of access to cash ↳ 75% of clients are women, often primary caregivers navigating financial vulnerability ↳ Executors, lawyers, and accountants are often carrying financial strain behind the scenes ↳ Delayed payments don’t just affect clients — they impact the entire professional ecosystem ↳ Providing funding options doesn’t just solve cash flow… it changes the quality of client conversations What stood out most? This isn’t about finance. It’s about reducing stress in moments people are already at their lowest — divorce, death, and everything in between. And sometimes, giving someone one more option is what keeps everything moving. If you work in family law, estates, or advise clients through these moments… this is worth a watch. #PeopleInLegal #LegalTech #FamilyLaw #Estates #AccessToJustice #LegalInnovation #Lawyers #Accounting #ClientExperience
