Make a meaningful impact.

Law affects everyone, from multinational corporations, governments to individual citizens. However, the legal industry has lagged behind other industries in digitization and cloud technology adoption.

We believe that great achievements come from aiming great people at big problems; and DISCOvians are the principal driver of our success. Our commitment to creating an environment where all people feel welcome and connected regardless of their backgrounds, along with our MAGIC culture and values (Meaningful Impact, All-in, Grit and Grace, Innovation and Craft) shape the way we treat each other, serve our customers, and give back to our community.
