At DiliTrust, we have always believed that our solutions could transform legal teams around the globe. This vision has driven our expansion beyond France, first to Europe, and then to Canada, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. Today, we are proud to announce the next step in our global journey: entering the U.S. market with the acquisition of doeLEGAL, a leading provider of Enterprise Legal Management (ELM) solutions.
While this might seem like a bold move, it’s actually the natural evolution of our long-term strategy. We started over two decades ago when legal tech was only just starting, driven by a simple yet ambitious goal: to harness the power of technology to streamline the work of legal departments.
Our comprehensive suite of solutions — covering contract management, entity management, and board portal solutions — has been designed with this vision at its core. Alongside our internal growth, strategic acquisitions have been key to enhancing our offerings. Thanks to the support by major investment funds since 2022, the acquisition of doeLEGAL marks our fourth major acquisition in the past two years.
Introducing Matter Management at DiliTrust
What does this mean for our existing customers? The core of our mission remains unchanged: to provide top-tier, secure and user-friendly legal tech solutions. The integration of doeLEGAL expands our horizons, granting our customers access to an even vaster array of tools tailored to meet the evolving demands of modern legal departments.
With doeLEGAL, we’re not just adding features, we are significantly expanding our product portfolio, introducing new solutions like enterprise legal management, eBilling, and eDiscovery. These features will complement our existing suite, but most importantly, we are adding robust matter management capabilities — probably one of the most critical components for in-house legal teams.
Beyond new features and capabilities, doeLEGAL brings a wealth of expertise in matter management. This acquisition is about more than technology; it’s about combining decades of industry knowledge and experience. For legal departments, managing matters efficiently is crucial, and doeLEGAL’s deep insights and expertise ensure that our customers are better equipped to navigate this complex landscape.
doeLEGAL is the ideal partner for DiliTrust’s U.S. expansion, not only because of our complementary product offerings but because of the values and vision we share. Both of our companies are committed to providing cutting-edge, AI-enhanced solutions that help legal departments streamline their processes, increase efficiency, and keep costs under control.
Yves Garagnon, Global CEO of DiliTrust, explains:
“There’s growing pressure on in-house legal teams to do more with less. By combining doeLEGAL’s ELM capabilities with DiliTrust’s AI-driven tools, we can help legal teams operate more efficiently while cutting costs.”
The benefits are tangible: one of doeLEGAL’s clients achieved a 65% improvement in legal team performance while simultaneously reducing costs by half. This result underscores the effectiveness of integrating advanced technologies into legal operations —something that we at DiliTrust have always strived to deliver for our clients.
Our commitment to security is unwavering, even as we continue to develop our feature-rich, intuitive interfaces that facilitate easy access to essential data. We adhere to the highest international security standards, including ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and SOC 2. Data protection is at the very core of our innovations and developments, ensuring that we never lose sight of our clients’ need for robust, dependable security.
What’s Next?
Those familiar with DiliTrust know that while our acquisition of doeLEGAL marks a significant leap forward in expanding our matter management capabilities, it’s just the beginning. We have big plans and want to further enhance our offerings in the near future. As we move forward, we remain committed to delivering innovation, simplicity, and security to our clients worldwide.
Today, we’re celebrating the addition of doeLEGAL to the DiliTrust group. The acquisition isn’t just about expanding our footprint to the U.S.; it’s about building stronger, more comprehensive solutions for legal departments everywhere.
With doeLEGAL now part of DiliTrust, our vision to empower legal teams globally has taken a significant step closer to this ambition. Here’s to the journey ahead!
