Borden Ladner Gervais LLP licences Business Integrity's DealBuilder
Following an extensive evaluation of the document automation marketplace, Borden Ladner Gervais LLP (blgcanada.com), one of North America's leading law firms with 650 lawyers in six offices, has licensed DealBuilder, the world's leading legal document automation system, to further enhance its reputation for professional and service excellence by offering new and advanced legal services to its impressive range of clients.
Joel Alleyne, BLG's CIO and CKO commented, "BLG's focus of providing our clients with new, enhanced levels of service means that BLG is constantly seeking best management practices and outstanding, innovative legal technologies".
Joel continued, "We are prepared to invest in people and technology to increase our efficiency and effectiveness in the legal marketplace. This enables us to be proactive about new developments in legal services and brings us closer to our clients, with all the benefits this brings to both our clients and to BLG".
Reflecting his CKO role, he added: "BLG is committed to both Service Excellence and Professional Excellence. This is often seen as the Holy Grail of Knowledge Management. We anticipate that DealBuilder, integrated with Hummingbird's DM5.1 document management system and Crossdraw's Orchestra web collaboration system, will enable our lawyers, patent and trademark agents to capture and re-use the firm's knowledge in ways that have not been feasible until now".
Remarking on the agreement, Tim Allen, Business Integrity's CEO, said, "We are excited that BLG has chosen DealBuilder as a cornerstone of its Knowledge Management and Service Excellence strategy for North American clients. DealBuilder is already used by the world's leading law firms and corporations and in each case we have been able to enhance DealBuilder as a result of what we learnt from them. BLG has a profound vision of the future for legal services in North America and we are looking forward to working together to help lift the standard for North American legal services to new levels".
