Case Study
KidKraft, a global leader in interactive and educational children’s products, operates in more than 90 countries and works with over 28,000 sellers worldwide. As the company scaled, so did its legal needs.
When Jonathan Hawkins joined as General Counsel, he was tasked with building the legal department from the ground up. Having previously worked in litigation-heavy environments, Jonathan knew firsthand how time-consuming and error-prone manual billing processes could be. He needed an intuitive, cost-effective solution to manage outside counsel spend, track budgets, and lay a scalable foundation for legal operations.
While many e-Billing platforms appeared overly complex and expensive, a roundtable discussion at the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) Conference introduced him to a simpler alternative: SimpleLegal, an Onit company.
“Most lawyers don’t have the subject matter expertise to compare systems and advise on what technology to purchase. Knowing others trusted SimpleLegal and vouched for it gave me peace of mind.”
