CEO & Executive Director – Kate Clark

Kate has over 25 years’ experience in litigation support, including 7 years at Mallesons Stephen Jaques (now King & Wood Mallesons) and many years in management roles in eDiscovery providers and mid-tier law firms.

Kate brings strong project management skills and a unique understanding of clients, commercial imperatives, technical discovery issues and project management to the team. Kate has an extensive knowledge of legal processes and procedures and an ability to communicate effectively with the client, the client’s inhouse IT department, the law firm and the electronic discovery provider.

Kate is focussed on using technology to reduce the time and cost spent on document management and legal review. Kate works closely with:

• client teams to ensure that she understands their document management systems and how to quickly and effectively retrieve documents from those systems;
• the legal team to understand the issues in the dispute so that she can effectively manage the electronic discovery process and assist the team in retrieving and reviewing data quickly; and
• external eDiscovery providers to structure the litigation databases to assist the legal team in managing the documents.

Kate has managed teams of lawyers, paralegals and electronic discovery providers on many projects to maximise the value of the services provided to clients.
