Litera, a global leader in legal technology for experience management, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Peppermint Technology, an innovative provider of technology solutions tailored to law firms and a valued Microsoft partner. This strategic acquisition significantly elevates the value law firms derive from their Microsoft applications, adding innovative marketing, business development, and case & matter management solutions to Litera’s suite of legal technology capabilities that manage the end-to-end legal experience.
At the core of Peppermint Technology’s offering is its CX365 platform, a fully integrated suite of legal specific applications built on Microsoft technology. CX365 combines CRM, ERM, matter management, and case management into a single, modern solution. Seamlessly integrated with Microsoft 365, these solutions enable lawyers and firms to efficiently manage tasks, collaborate across teams and practice groups, and make data-driven decisions that drive the business.
Gary Young, CEO of Peppermint Technology expressed, “We are very excited to become part of the Litera family, where our shared vision and offerings will deliver even more benefit to our customers and the wider legal sector. It is the right time in Peppermint’s growth journey to bring our businesses together, having similar cultures and ambition for our people, customers, and partners.”
“The combined offerings from Litera and Peppermint Technology will empower law firms to excel in client engagement and operational efficiency directly in the Microsoft tools they use every day,” said Avaneesh Marwaha, CEO of Litera. “We are excited to both integrate Peppermint’s innovative solutions into our portfolio and partner with Microsoft, accelerating Litera’s mission to transform top-to-bottom the entire legal experience and give our clients efficiencies they did not imagine possible.”
“As mutual customers of both Litera and Peppermint, we are excited about the opportunities this acquisition presents for our lawyers, enabling seamless access to some of our most utilised applications within the cloud,” said Mike Wilson, Managing Partner at leading law firm Blake Morgan. “By integrating our legal workflows directly into Microsoft cloud applications, we anticipate a significant boost in efficiency for our lawyers, and Litera and Peppermint have been key partners in achieving this vision. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and are confident that this acquisition further enhances the exceptional products and services we’ve come to expect.”
