Our take
Axiom provides high-caliber legal talent, counting more than 6,000 lawyers spread across Europe, North America, and APAC. The company launched in 2000 and serves more than half of the Fortune 100 today. It offers a wide range of solutions to meet legal needs, from on-demand attorneys to supplement companies' legal departments, to senior paralegals to review legal forms and business contracts.
Traditionally, law firms were the dominant providers in the legal industry and their hierarchical partnership structure was a major obstacle for anyone trying to overcome that prevailing model. Axiom's founder saw an opportunity to reconfigure legal delivery and set out to construct a law company to respond to the growing misalignment between firm lawyers and equity partners as well as firms and clients. Axiom has recruited lawyers from top firms while cutting most traditional extra costs, enabling it to offer high-quality services at a much lower price than the wider legal industry.
Axiom received its first funding round in 2000, raising $5.4 million, and three subsequent funding rounds have followed. These investments fueled expansion over time and enabled the company to invest in technology, a talented workforce, and a strong senior management bench. Going forward, Axiom will keep expanding its legal professional talent offering and it will likely maintain its focus on tech, as exemplified by its acquisition of legal tech firm Plexus Engage in 2022.
