1980s

George learned his trade at Olivetti, who were the market leaders of legal accounting machines in the late 1970s and early 1980s. They trained him into being a specialist in the legal market.

1990s

The opportunity arose for George to set up his own business and given the experience he had it made complete sense. That business was called Axiom, which was an accounting software business George and his partners operated for 25 years.

2000s

As we moved into the 2000s, George and his team started to develop the very early stages of case management and CRM software specifically for lawyers. Axiom introduced this new platform to several high profile High St firms in Scotland and the reaction was far beyond their expectations. He knew he had found a niche in the market.

Denovo have become a real driving force in the legal tech industry in the UK.

“It's been an exhilarating journey, to say the least. When I started, way back in the early 1980s we were a small team with big dreams. We were always focused on innovation, streamlining legal processes, and providing top-notch customer support. All I ever wanted to do was make lawyers lives easier. It was that simple. Through hard work and collaboration with lawyers throughout the UK I believe we have delivered on that mission and continue to do so to this day. Our job now is to keep pushing the boundaries and making a difference in the legal world. I'm excited to see what the future holds for Denovo, and I'll be cheering the team on with full confidence.”
