Chief executive

Chris is the chief executive of Codex Edge, which produces the Atlas database of lawyers in the UK: detailed data on over 150,000 individual lawyers at over 15,000 individual firms (including overseas-based firms), with 250 searchable categories that allow users of the data to pinpoint exactly the type of person or firm that they are looking for.

The data is used by law firms, recruiters and other suppliers to the legal sector. The easy-to-use visuals set out key facts such as moves, promotions, PQE, and practice areas.

With a background in recruitment himself, Chris knows exactly what users are looking for and how to make the time-consuming research process extremely quick and easy.
