Lawyers defend your rights, so the way they work with digital tools concerns you directly: finding a lawyer, reaching one, knowing where the documents and information you share end up. Tell us about your experience or your expectations, in a few lines.

Examples

  • Finding a lawyer: you did not know whom to turn to, nor what it would cost.
  • Reaching them: a difficult first contact, a late reply, a remote appointment.
  • An identity card or a payslip sent by email, without knowing where it would be kept.
  • Legal aid, which covers all or part of a lawyer’s fees for people with low incomes: the steps that succeeded, those that got stuck.

Choose the subject closest to your message: the consultation team will read it alongside those on the same subject.

Tell your story without writing any name, address or case number, whether yours or a relative’s. This message helps improve the way lawyers work; it does not replace a lawyer’s advice on your own situation.

One idea per message, 8,000 characters at most. An example from your own life helps the team understand: a lawyer hard to find, a first appointment, a document sent by email.

So that the consultation team can reply to you.

Publishing your contribution

I agree that my contribution may be published on this site after review, with or without my name as chosen below, under the Open Licence 2.0: anyone may reuse it freely, including for commercial purposes, provided they cite its source. I may ask for its removal from the site at any time. Removal does not recall copies already reused.

Personal data

The publisher of the site keeps your message, together with the information you choose to provide, in order to prepare the report of the consultation, on the basis of your consent. Open-weight artificial intelligence models, which the consultation runs on its servers in France, analyse it to help the team read it; a member of the team takes every decision. Your email address, if you give it, is used only to reply to you.

You may request access to your message, its rectification or its erasure by writing to propositions@souverainete-avocats.fr. Details are given on the Personal data page.

After sending, a personal link shows you your contribution’s progress: received, read, under review, retained, amended or set aside with a reason, merged, in the report.
