What they say about us

Francisco helped to revolutionise the way that we contract, store documents and manage risk at Onfido. His strategic vision coupled with attention to detail was instrumental to the success of not only legal operations, but the broader commercial ecosystem at Onfido. Through his efforts we managed to reduce headcount costs, improve quality of work for lawyers and draw invaluable data driven insights to benefit the wider business.

Francesca PorterGroup General Counsel, PolyAI

Francisco makes everything run smoother. He deploys a sharp operational focus with blue-sky thinking and a positive can-do attitude, helping solve problems across different areas of the business and not just Legal. He is an absolute pleasure to work with, and his outcomes speak for themselves.

Charlotte HallHead of Legal, Unmind

In a complex corporate transaction involving due diligence trackers, dynamic timelines, and corporate clean up exercises - Francisco’s skill set is absolutely invaluable to running an effective process and hitting deadlines. Francisco led on legal process management for the Onfido sale, an extremely complex transaction. Without his structured approach and attention to detail we would have struggled to meet our timelines and likely incurred a lot more external advisor costs.
