LegalVision was started by ex-corporate lawyer Lachlan McKnight and software engineer Evan Tait-Styles. The virtual firm was created to provide high-quality and low cost, fixed price legal services to businesses.
The award panel was comprised of Shelley Dunstone, principal Legal Circles and ALPMA Life Member; Dr Peter Lynch, managing director, dci lycon; Shirley Hamel, principal Hamel Consulting and ALPMA Life Member; Stephen Wood, chairman, InfoTrack and Brendan Smart, General Manager – Sales, InfoTrack.
“Congratulations to LegalVision for creating a market disruption that not only changed the way Australian SMBs can access legal support but that has driven strong revenue and market share at the same time,” said InfoTrack chairman Stephen Wood.
“Often companies think about thought leadership in an almost altruistic way, but at the end of the day an innovation that leads the market and drives business is the real leader.”
