Harbor comes to market as a single entity serving law firms, corporations, and their law departments. Harbor integrates HBR Consulting, LAC Group, and Wilson Allen, along with several key acquisitions, and has 650+ strategists, technologists, and specialists around the world. Private equity firm Renovus Capital backed the combination of firms.
The name Harbor combines aspects of the legacy entities names and represents a “promise to clients.” Kaye Sycamore, global head of marketing and brand strategy said, “We know that every enterprise is on a journey to realize its own mission. Along the way, it looks for safe harbor – for points of refuge, support, and resupply, which function as economic centers where value is added and knowledge is exchanged.”
The new company is more than a bigger version of the individual entities, with the ability to provide end-to-end solutions. Its legacy organizations have built meaningful, long-lasting relationships with clients.
Aspects of the internal integration are ongoing, but the focus is on the clients, including integrating account management and relationships.
Sycamore says Harbor is different because of the number of its internal experts, in some fields more than the top law firms have combined. Harbor serves more than 80% of Global 200 law firms and 50% of the Fortune 500.
