Morae Global Corporation (“Morae”), the global leader in digital and business solutions for a constantly changing legal industry, today announced a key new initiative to strengthen its strategic consulting and spend management solutions for corporate legal and compliance departments. The move builds upon Morae’s strong pedigree in consulting to offer market leading expertise for organizations looking to optimize their legal service delivery model.


The initiative includes the expansion of Morae’s Strategic Consulting group – creating a combined global team with many decades of experience in the legal and compliance fields. The team routinely works with General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officers to understand their needs and develop transformative solutions which unlock optimal value and service delivery effectiveness across in-house and external legal and compliance functions. This includes innovative resourcing strategies and tapping into the unparalleled depth of Morae’s technology partnerships to bring together best-in-class and cutting-edge technologies for digitization, cloud migration, matter and contract management, workflow automation, collaborative working, and generative AI.

Today’s fast changing risk, regulatory and legal landscape coupled with global financial uncertainty presents a considerable challenge for legal and compliance functions, which remain under intense pressure to provide measurable value to the business.”

“Consulting on innovative solutions has been a bedrock of our business for years and over hundreds of clients. Morae is playing to our strength by ramping up our capabilities to provide clients with the best strategic consulting experience they will find anywhere in the world.”

“On behalf of our leadership team, I am thrilled to also welcome Robin and Murtuza to help lead this important initiative and provide top tier consulting and solutions to our clients. Both of them are widely respected by their peers as two of the brightest innovators and solution providers in the industry today.”
