New Zealand legal software company Actionstep says it has opened its first office in the United Kingdom, in Aldgate, London.

The company was founded in 2004 and provides practice management software, with a focus on cloud-based products and services.

Founder and CEO Ted Jordan says demand in the United Kingdom has significantly increased in 2017.

“This year we’ve experienced an influx of new customers and interest in the UK. To enhance the support we can provide to customers, and handle increasing demand, we’ve opened a local office. We are really looking forward to helping UK lawyers build more modern, efficient, and profitable law firms," he says.

Actionstep already has offices in New Zealand, Canada and the United States, and representatives in Australia.
