Joining Claims Gate
I recently made the decision to join Claims Gate as a strategist covering areas around product, marketing, legal, and sales. A wide-ranging role you might say. I should caveat it all by saying that Claims Gate is a start-up. And if we had actual offices, I would probably be helping do coffee/tea runs too! Going from the relative security of working with larger organisations, I have been tempted back to the world of a bootstrapped company and the trials that come with it.Breaking out of the co...

How to go to market with any claim in minutes
One of the most frustrating challenges in group litigation is getting a claim to market fast enough. Go to market early and you have a sea of customers to prospect. Go to market too late and you might find yourself fighting over the crumbs. Too often you can find yourself as a late entrant because, amongst other issues, you don’t have the technical infrastructure in place to start signing up customers.Your project is now #69 in the queueMany law firms have shared or limited technology resourc...

The Misuse of Paralegals
When it comes to group litigation claims, there exists a large cohort of paralegals whose role is completely misplaced and adds little value to the law firm they signed up to work for. This is not only costing these firms large sums of money but is leading to a higher turnover of staff and an increase in self-inflicted data problems.The issue.The role of a paralegal is to support the senior fee earners.

The Rise of No-Code, Self-Service Platforms
Companies spend a lot of time, and money, buying in technologies and service solutions that claim to do it all. But with a lot of development taking place today that is geared towards self-service, more firms are realising that there are better ways of working and delivering the results they want.

This push, with products like I...

Can you profit from Web 3.0?
I am an investor in many companies. My portfolio is fairly diverse. But there is one common thread that binds most of the firms I have put some cash towards; they all place a high value on innovation. Often, that innovation is rooted in the development of technology. And the trends that emerge from it. Throughout 2021, a lot of my attention was impacted by the rise of technologies that are trying to deliver Web 3.0. As we get started in 2022, I am asking what is Web 3.0 and where can you inve...
