In an undisclosed deal, e-discovery and legal services provider Consilio is acquiring two prominent UK companies, Lawyers On Demand (LOD) and SYKE, a legal tech consultancy. This acquisition is not only expected to boost Consilio’s presence in the United Kingdom but is also set to expand the company’s ELS, Enterprise Legal Services operations, across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australia.
According to a statement from Consilio, the new acquisition is part of the company’s broader business strategy to strengthen their international standing in offering enterprise legal services.
Lawyers On Demand (LOD), a firm well known for its staffing and advisory roles, is set to provide Consilio with a larger workforce to handle increased demand. Equally, the acquisition of SYKE, a respected legal tech consultancy is seen as a strategic move to scale tech-oriented legal services on a global scale.
This acquisition follows a pattern of expansion for Consilio, who in recent years, have been working assiduously to bolster the company’s enterprise legal services capabilities and international reach, as suggested in this
report.
With these moves, Consilio is steadily positioning itself as a major force to reckon with in global enterprise legal services.
