A legal profession support business founded by a local entrepreneur is to triple in size after a merger.

Briefed, which was founded in 2012 and supplies online support for law firms, has been bought by Omni partners and will merge with DMJ Recruitment.

Orlagh Kelly, Briefed’s founder, will be the CEO of the new business. She said she aims for it to become a “leading global resource”.

“Omni has a strong track record in supporting founders and I am thrilled that they share my vision and ambitions, evidenced by their investment in Briefed,” she added.

“I established Briefed to help organisations reduce their exposure to risk by not complying with key employment and compliance legislation and increasing employee effectiveness.

“That will now be further enhanced by our ability to source and place the most experienced fully trained employees.”
