A bit over a year ago, the team behind Siera Data decided to look at doing something a little different in the Australian Legal Tech market.
Siera Data’s founders had already spent over 3 decades of combined dedication to their clients. They had worked inside large law firms, regulators and global advisory firms. They had acted for financial institutions, global oil and gas companies, global manufacturing companies and large government bodies. They had worked on global engagements including billion-dollar frauds, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act investigations, multi-billion-dollar construction disputes and more.
So, with all this experience under their belts they looked to the market to see what was missing.
After extensive research all the potential partners were taken for a test drive. The end result was always the same: Siera Data’s founders would end up working for organisations that had a different culture to their own. It was either due to a disengaged leadership in another jurisdiction, ultimate responsibility to shareholders or partnerships (but not to clients), a wavering focus, or a grinding bureaucracy that could destroy the soul of the most hardened professional.
The answer for Siera Data became surprisingly simple: they needed an independent, professional organisation of their own making. Siera Data would take all their lessons learned over 30 years (both good and bad) and apply them with one goal: to put their clients first.
Siera Data’s shareholders are their clients. And the client dividend is an unwavering commitment to their success. All the time.
