Legal advice website Avvo raises $71.5 million

It’s been a big month for Seattle online legal marketplace Avvo.

The company announced earlier this month that it is moving to a new headquarters downtown, and on Tuesday it said it has raised a whopping $71.5 million series E financing round.

Avvo operates a website for legal advice, lawyer reviews and to connect clients with lawyers. The company was founded in 2006 by Mark Britton, himself a lawyer.

The company is now valued at $650 million, according to a Bloomberg report.

Avvo has been growing at an accelerated pace in the past couple of years, raising $30 million last April.
