Maurice Blackburn Selects ShareDo for Case Management Transformation

Manchester, United Kingdom, 19th Decemberr 

Maurice Blackburn, a leading plaintiff law firm in Australia, has chosen ShareDo as its new case management system (CMS) following a thorough selection process. This choice is part of the firm’s transformation agenda to reshape the delivery of legal services.
In designing their transformation program, Maurice Blackburn gathered extensive insights from clients and staff to create a bold aspiration for the future state journeys. A key enabler for this was the need to move from a legacy CMS to a modern platform that would deliver a more intuitive experience, efficiency gains through automation, and insights that will assist ongoing optimisation efforts.

Maurice Blackburn conducted an exceptionally thorough review of the Case Management System market. While the system needed to support outstanding client and employee experiences now, it also needed to be adaptive, ensuring the firm could rise to the AI-driven future of legal service delivery.

Greg Emsley, Chief Digital Officer at Maurice Blackburn, stated,

"On a technical level, the platform was well aligned to our enterprise architecture ambitions, with the ability to integrate easily with our existing application landscape. The ShareDo team has developed an excellent low-code/no-code, adaptive platform that will be capable of servicing many emerging requirements. We are very excited to partner with the Sharedo team to accelerate the transformation program.”

Jane Headon, General Manager of Transformation at Maurice Blackburn, said,

“Sharedo offered us a compelling value proposition for our case management needs, especially considering our B2C context and scale. With a comprehensive set of features and accelerators, we recognised that Sharedo offered us the fastest path to value. We were also impressed with ShareDo’s client-centric approach to the platform roadmap, and the strong, authentic partnership ethos they demonstrated to us both before and during our implementation.”

Sebastian Negreira, CRO of ShareDo, commented on the partnership:

"We are very excited to support Maurice Blackburn in their transformation journey. Our client-centric development and transparent approach align perfectly with Maurice Blackburn’s values and we look forward to a successful and impactful collaboration."

Maurice Blackburn looks forward to enhancing client service, improving employee experience, and boosting operational efficiency with the implementation of the new Sharedo platform.

ShareDo wins Alliance of the Year at the 2024 British Legal Technology Awards

A Partnership That Delivers Real Change

We’re very excited to announce that ShareDo, in partnership with Horwich Farrelly (HF), has been named Alliance of the Year at the 2024 British Legal Technology Awards.

This award recognises how two organisations, working together closely, can achieve significant results. Our partnership with HF has modernised how they manage legal cases, improved efficiency, and created better outcomes for their clients.

From Vision to Reality

HF set out to modernise its systems as part of a larger transformation project. They wanted to replace legacy systems with a modern, cloud-based solution that would:

  • Cut case handling times and improve client service.
  • Empower their legal teams to focus on meaningful work instead of admin.
  • Scale with their business as it grows and evolves.

The first implementation project was in HF’s Ireland office. In just six weeks, the ShareDo system was live and managing hundreds of cases. This wasn’t just a technical success—it set the tone for how the partnership would work, with time-to-value and rapid iteration being a key driver.

Building Independence and Confidence

One of our main goals was to make sure HF’s team could manage and adapt ShareDo on their own. To achieve this, we embedded our consultants into their teams, providing hands-on training and support during the rollout.

By the end of the first project, HF’s developers were confident enough to take the lead. They’ve since rolled out ShareDo to other practice areas like employment law, real estate, and corporate work—all on their own. This approach has saved time, reduced costs, and allowed HF to move quickly.

Why This Partnership Works

The key to this partnership is trust and openness. Both teams have been upfront about challenges and focused on solving them together. By working as a single unit, we’ve avoided the usual frustrations of large technology projects.

Our shared goals have also helped. From the start, we agreed that the project wasn’t just about delivering a system—it was about improving how HF operates and creating real value for their clients.

Looking Ahead

Winning this award is a proud moment, but it’s just the beginning. HF’s rollout of ShareDo is ongoing, with plans to expand into more areas of the business. Together, we’re exploring new ways to use data, automation, and AI to make legal work even more efficient and effective.

To HF: thank you for being such a collaborative and driven partner. Here’s to many more successes ahead!

Lawfront Selects ShareDo to Power the Next Phase of Legal Innovation and Growth

Manchester, United Kingdom, 3rd September 

Lawfront, a leading legal services group, has chosen ShareDo as its new case management system (CMS) to support its ambitious growth strategy and ongoing digital transformation. This strategic partnership will empower Lawfront to deliver innovative, efficient, and scalable legal services while reinforcing its commitment to regional leadership.

With a vision to build a high-quality, national business, Lawfront has been steadily expanding its group of firms, including Farleys, Fisher Jones Greenwood, Nelsons, and Slater Heelis.

Lawfront’s unique proposition to back firms to achieve their growth ambitions is providing a solution to the challenges that regional mid-sized law firms are currently facing.
One of those is the need to replace legacy practice management systems, which are increasingly expensive to maintain, lack integration with modern productivity tools and pose security risks. Yet, many partnerships find the required investment and development effort of new solutions challenging.

The future Lawfront Platform based on ShareDo will provide a cloud native PMS for all core functions, with a workflow CMS. Futureproof, scalable, secure, integrated and enabled for AI. Ready to be deployed for any new firm joining Lawfront.

As Lawfront prepares to acquire additional firms over the next few years, the selection of ShareDo marks a crucial step in consolidating all operations onto a single, cloud-native platform and we are pleased to partner with Lawfront in this venture.

Axel Koelsch, COO of Lawfront, commented:

“At Lawfront, we leverage technology to overcome inefficiencies that hold back smaller regional law firms. Our growth strategy is centred on providing the best technology, marketing, and operational support to our regional partner firms, enabling them to thrive in an increasingly competitive legal landscape. ShareDo stood out to us as a modern, low-code, cloud-based platform that aligns perfectly with our needs. It’s more than just a case management system; it’s a tool that will drive our growth, improve client service, and future-proof our business as we aim to reach £150 million in turnover and position ourselves among the top 40 UK firms.”

Lawfront’s decision to invest in ShareDo follows a thorough market review, driven by the need for a flexible and scalable CMS that can integrate seamlessly with other business-critical systems. ShareDo’s open API structure, combined with its workflow capabilities, will enable Lawfront to standardise operations across its growing portfolio of firms, reduce migration costs, and accelerate the adoption of AI-driven process improvements.

Sebastian Negreira, CRO of ShareDo, added:

“Given the complexities of centralising the technological infrastructure of multiple law firms at the same time, ShareDo’s client-centric development, agile capabilities, and cloud-native design make it the perfect fit for Lawfront’s forward-looking strategy. We look forward to supporting Lawfront as they continue to innovate and expand their offering.”

Lawfront’s choice of ShareDo highlights the growing importance of technology investment in the legal sector. By consolidating onto a single, cutting-edge platform, Lawfront is positioning itself to not only meet the demands of today’s legal market but also to lead the way in future advancements.
