Legal workflow management platform helps in-house lawyers with external relationships

Houston, June 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LX Studio, the innovation-focused US subsidiary launched by global law firm Norton Rose Fulbright on June 1, today announced a partnership with NMBL Technologies to license NMBL’s flagship legal workflow management platform, Proxy. This arrangement enables LX Studio to make Proxy available to Norton Rose Fulbright clients on special terms.

Proxy is a robust and secure cloud-based workflow management system specifically designed to support collaboration between in-house lawyers, business stakeholders and external law firms. This system is designed to allow legal operations professionals to better track, delegate and prioritize tasks, resources, workflows and documents for shared legal projects.

Jeff Cody, Norton Rose Fulbright’s US Managing Partner, said:

“Proxy is a key tool in LX Studio’s drive to improve the client experience through innovation. Time and again, clients tell us that managing legal workflow and implementing legal operations concepts is a challenge. Proxy’s digital workflow technology enables better legal operations, and we believe it will offer tremendous value to clients as they transform their corporate legal departments to keep pace with their changing businesses.”

Gina Shishima, Norton Rose Fulbright’s US Chief Strategy and Operations Partner, said:

“LX Studio focuses on providing clients with innovative legal services and new technology products, like our award-winning privacy compliance tool suite NT Analyzer. Offerings like NT Analyzer and Proxy go beyond traditional counsel. Proxy is an end-to-end solution that will help clients more efficiently manage the legal services they already receive and also expand the range of what they can achieve for their organizations.”

Christy Bentz, Norton Rose Fulbright’s US Chief Client Value and Innovation Officer, said:

“This partnership is a perfect fit for LX Studio. Proxy is subject matter agnostic, so it can be used with clients in any industry and by lawyers of any practice. Because Proxy is a SaaS product, clients can use it in a wide range of environments, regardless of infrastructure. Proxy has demonstrated that it can change the way legal work is managed and delivered.”

Norton Rose Fulbright launched LX Studio, which is part of global innovation and service delivery program NRF Transform, following its recent entrance into Chicago. In April, the firm opened its 12^th US and 53^rd global location with a diverse team of tech-focused professionals in the city’s startup-centric Fulton Market District.
