MAPD Ventures completed the acquisition of Jackson Lees Group, a provider of legal services. Financial terms were not disclosed. “Our strategy is predicated upon taking away the headache of “back office” for law firm owners to free up their time to focus on localised growth and development. By providing strong operating platforms and infrastructure with defined career structures and leadership, we will enable traditional law firms to deal with succession issues and to focus on what they do best,” Joanna Kingston-Davies, JLG COO.
