Lawfront teams up with Katchr to drive scalability and data insights for regional law firms
Lawfront, a legal services business through prominent regional law firms Farleys, Fisher Jones Greenwood, Nelsons and Slater Heelis have announced their recent partnership with Katchr.
Backed by private equity fund Blixt, Lawfront’s vision is to build a high-quality, national business, dedicated to its people, and retaining the very best in the profession to deliver exceptional client services. Through investment in people, technology, cross-group collaboration and further local acquisitions, Lawfront is supporting regional firms in achieving their business growth aspirations.
With ambitious plans for further acquisitions, Lawfront face a significant growth in data across various platforms. Recognising the complexity of deriving actionable insights from several different practice management systems, Lawfront sought out Katchr Enterprise to consolidate their data in one place.
At the core of Katchr’s Enterprise solution is its own data warehouse technology that provides specialist integration to each practice management system; bridging the gap between a number of data sources to facilitate rapid access to management information dashboards that are tailored for each law firm individually and Lawfront as a whole.
Leveraging Katchr’s intuitive visual reporting capabilities, Lawfront will be able to access simple and fast navigation to the right information at the right time. Built specifically for law firms, Katchr is supporting Lawfront in empowering their back office staff, fee earning teams and law firm management with timely automated insights into key performance, finance and compliance metrics. Enabling more data-driven decision making at the touch of a button.
Axel Koelsch, Chief Operating Officer of Lawfront said: “Mid-sized law firms struggle to keep up with the investment cycle in technology, the move to cloud and adoption of AI. We support our partner firms with the capital to invest in IT platforms such as Katchr, as well as the central expertise to implement and manage its use effectively.”
“Our partnership with Katchr will allow our management teams to make better data-driven decisions and increase the value of the data they hold about their clients and their work. The management system we have now adopted will make this process seamless and help support our firms’ ambitious growth plans.”
Graham Moore, Managing Director of Katchr, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration: ‘Katchr’s standard integrations to over 20 practice management systems, our unique ability to build bespoke connectors, and a cloud-hosted platform powered by Microsoft Azure, not only facilitates scalability but also guarantees the flexibility and security crucial for Lawfront’s sustained growth and development.’
