How it works

There’s been a lot of talk in recent years about transforming legal functions. Meanwhile, our CEO and Founder, John Bennett, has got on and led the way with actually making legal teams better. We are now the legal operations specialists. We know how to deliver solutions that really work and we make it happen.

 Our guiding principles:

Fixed price

We don’t do hourly rates or day rates. Once we’ve listened to your needs, established the problem to be addressed and settled on a proposed solution, we’ll let you know exactly what it’s going to cost.

Best in the market

We don’t have our own tech or cookie-cutter methodologies, but we will leverage our network to bring together the best solutions for your business.

Clear and pragmatic

Whilst we will be creative, we won’t blind you with consultant speak – our advice will be clear, concise and pragmatic.
