Meet the Team

James MacGregor
Founder/Managing Director

James has worked in global leadership roles at some of the largest eDiscovery professional services firms in the world overseeing projects in the US, UK and European markets. In those roles James led teams of professionals in the collection, processing and review strategy of huge multi-lingual datasets drawn from thousands of custodians across the globe.

In his role as a founder and builder of UK operations for boutique cross-border litigation support companies, James has focused on adapting international approaches to eDiscovery to cater to the nuances of the UK market and the specific disclosure requirements under the courts of England and Wales.    

Building on his many years of experience in the eDiscovery industry serving both regional clients and large multinational ones, James is adept developing bespoke solutions for his corporate and law firm clients through the recognition that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every project has different timelines, deadlines, budgets, data challenges and legal requirements. Therefore, they all require a tailor-made solution to satisfy each project’s unique needs.
