Burges Salmon aspires to be at the forefront alongside Magic Circle firms in its management of knowledge, investment in resources and use of systems. The firm understands that its effective management of
legal and business knowledge is crucial and undoubtedly contributes to the success of its business and that of its clients.
Colette Bewley, Director of Development and Know How, said "The management of our Knowledge and Know How is a vital part of the service we offer to clients. It forms a key element of the firm's strategy to be the law firm of choice for discerning clients. GateWest won a comprehensive competitive tender process and in selecting them we anticipate being able to provide even better support to both our lawyers and clients. Once again we're showing we don't just follow the pack, we take a lead. GateWest will take our KM solutions to the very highest levels." Carol Aldridge, Head of Knowledge Management & Information Services at Burges Salmon said : "We are very happy with GateWest New Media to date.

The response from GateWest to our requests and issues has been excellent with a superb turnaround time."
