Lee Hishammuddin Allen & Gledhill Implements ELITE 3E

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 7, 2009 – One of the largest law firms in Malaysia has chosen ELITE 3E for its core financial and practice management platform. Lee Hishammuddin Allen & Gledhill (LHAG) is currently the fifth largest law firm in Malaysia with offices in Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru and Penang.

“The technology platform offered by 3E provides strong support for our operations, which is in line with our longer-term strategy in this increasingly globalised and borderless environment in our industry,” said Muthanna Abdullah, managing partner, LHAG. “Without a doubt, 3E enables us to work efficiently and seamlessly by handling our multi-language and multi-currency business through the provision of built-in workflow capabilities and remote access.

“But more importantly, I also see that we are able to make better informed decisions and do so quickly, which is key to the continued growth and strength of our firm,” added Abdullah.

“Our 3E deployment with LHAG marks our first client in the Malaysian market,” said Kim Massana, senior vice president and general manager of Elite. “As a forward-thinking firm, the partners wanted to give more access, control and visibility to their attorneys, enabling the firm to stay very agile in a growing market. Compared with other solutions, 3E’s integrated development environment allows firms to incorporate new features with speed and reliability on a large scale.”
