CLEVELAND and DALLAS, June 5, 2025 | Align Capital Partners’ (“ACP”) outsourced legal services platform Counsel Press Inc. (“Counsel Press” or the “Company”) announced the Company’s expansion into the service of process market with its acquisition of Legalex LLC. Headquartered in New York City, Legalex is an all-in-one technology-enabled platform designed to support process serving, court e-filing, skip tracing and investigative services across all 50 states.
The acquisition of Legalex serves as a strategic pillar for Counsel Press’ continued growth in the service of process market, which significantly increases the Company’s TAM and creates cross-sell opportunities with Counsel Press’ thousands of litigator customers. The Legalex platform can integrate with law firm’s existing case management tools or be offered alongside Counsel Press’ own Case Anywhere solution. Further, this technology can be leveraged by future process serving add-ons.
“Counsel Press is a natural fit for our technology platform that is purpose built to drive efficiency and outcomes for litigators,” said Mitchell Nathanson, Founder and President of Legalex. “Together, we’re delivering a true one-stop-shop solution for law firms nationwide.”
By adding Legalex, Counsel Press strengthens its value proposition of simplifying the litigation process while maintaining compliance with the highly nuanced procedural rules of trial courts, appellate courts and alternative dispute resolution venues.
“This acquisition presents an exciting opportunity to enhance our e-filing and service of process capabilities through a scalable, tech-forward platform,” said Scott Thompson, CEO of Counsel Press. “We’re thrilled to welcome Legalex’s clients into the Counsel Press family.”
The transaction marks the Company’s seventh add-on acquisition since ACP partnered with Counsel Press in 2023. ACP and Counsel Press remain focused on pursuing further M&A opportunities across appellate services, process serving and trial case management. ACP team members Matt Iodice, Rob Langley, Joe Eazor, Matt Bowen and Sarah Mahosky supported the transaction.
