LEGAL BENCHMARKING GROUP MAKES FIRST BOLT-ON ACQUISITION WITH THE LAWYER

Triple Private Equity (“Triple") is pleased to announce that its portfolio company Legal Benchmarking Group (“LBG”) has made its first bolt-on acquisition with The Lawyer.

The Lawyer is an established provider of news, intelligence and data-driven insight for the legal industry. International law firms and legal teams rely on The Lawyer to make informed decisions for the organisations and clients.

The addition of The Lawyer expands LBG’s coverage of specialist practice areas, adding law firm leadership, operations, and business strategy coverage to its offering, and creating a leading intelligence provider for the global legal market.

Announcing the acquisition within the first three months of Triple’s ownership highlights the strong momentum LBG has achieved since being carved out from Delinian by Triple in June of this year.

LBG was the second investment made by Triple’s inaugural fund, which invests in mission-critical B2B software and data across Financial Infrastructure and Risk and Compliance.

Commenting on the acquisition, Mads Hansen, Head of Investments and Managing & Founding Partner at Triple Private Equity, said: “We are pleased with the progress that LBG has made since our investment and to announce a high-quality bolt-on so early into our ownership. The combination of The Lawyer with Legal Benchmarking Group brings together two premium legal intelligence assets.”

Tom St Denis, CEO Legal Benchmarking Group, said: “We are really excited to have The Lawyer join LBG. Their products and capabilities are complementary to what we do at a practice area level, and will enhance how we serve global law firms with differentiated, mission-critical business of law insight.”

The deal is expected to close in October 2025.
