Why in-house lawyers value LexisNexis

“As a UK Counsel and Director Legal, I am perceived in the company as the

font of all legal knowledge, and my colleagues defer to me for anything related to UK legislation.

With the support of LexisPSL I can always shine.”

Lara Oyesanya, UK Counsel & Director, Legal, Klarna UK Ltd

Tim Greenwell, Director of Legal & Risk, Southampton Football Club

“LexisPSL provides a good range of risk and compliance materials, checklists and

outline frameworks in one place. I think that’s the difference. It saves us a huge number of hours over the days, weeks and months. Having relevant

support at hand, not having to draft or review documents from scratch — it all adds up.”

“I use LexisPSL frequently and I recommend it to my colleagues all the time. When they ask me questions, I say, ‘There’s definitely

a quick answer to that on LexisPSL’.”

Michael Griss, In-house Lawyer, Vodafone Global Enterprise

“We have been impressed by the enthusiasm of the LexisNexis team to understand what an in-house

lawyer needs, to design a product that meets that need, and to carry on engaging to ensure the

product satisfies that aim.”

Robert Blok, Group Legal Director, Virgin Management

“LexisNexis In-house gives you everything you need — practical advice, precedents,

commentaries, the whole lot — spread on one page, and you can drill down to the documents

you want. It speeds up the whole process.”

Lola Moses, General Counsel & Company Secretary at VisitBritain

“We were able to respond to the employer, ask them to reconsider

their position, and resolve some of the issues pre-hearing. We

couldn’t have done that without access to those other ‘crossover’ areas we get with LexisNexis.”

Sarah Dodds, Head of Legal, Medical Defense Shield
