Technology supplier appoints legal adviser
Encompass Corporation has appointed Chris Bull as an industry adviser. Chris’s executive career includes chief operating officer Europe & Americas at professional services outsourcing firm Integreon and executive and board member roles at law firm Osborne Clarke.
Wayne Johnson, founder and CEO at Encompass, says: “Chris’s knowledge and expertise of the UK’s legal services market sector will help us take Encompass Verify for law, a product already proven in Australia’s legal services market and tailor it for the UK. Our ambition is to become the product of choice and Chris will help us to achieve this.”
Chris says: “Technology advances mean that clients now expect legal services providers to communicate information and advice more often and more quickly. At the same time lawyers are faced with providing advice on their interpretation of increasing volumes and complexity of information. Encompass has demonstrated the value of visual analytics to the legal sector in Australia where it reduces the time that lawyers and other professionals spend searching for and reviewing information from days to minutes.”
