Avvoka Raises £14M to Scale Legal Drafting Technology

Avvoka, a legal drafting platform, has raised £14 million in a growth funding round led by Valhalla Ventures, the investment vehicle of Mark and Lindy O'Hare.

This raise signals growing investor confidence in structured legal technology at a time when law firms face mounting pressure to handle drafting work at a greater scale, with more consistency and tighter oversight.

The Investment

The funding round is Valhalla Ventures' first investment since the O'Hares completed the sale of Preqin to BlackRock in 2025, a transaction reported as record-setting. The £14 million will be used to expand Avvoka's presence in the United States and to extend the capabilities of its platform.

The round marks a meaningful milestone for the London-based company, which has spent the past decade building drafting infrastructure for large legal organisations.

The Problem Avvoka Addresses

Law firms and in-house legal teams increasingly need to produce large volumes of legal documents with consistent quality. Traditional approaches rely on precedent documents and institutional knowledge held by individual lawyers. When volume grows, maintaining consistency and enabling supervision across matters becomes difficult without structured systems.
