His career includes being one of the youngest partners ever appointed to the leading UK law firm in which he worked for more than 20 years, and which he ultimately led. Elected as Chairman of that law firm, he led the firm’s partners through a strategic and operational review which resulted in the firm becoming the core UK legal practice within KPMG’s global grouping of law firms. Robert then became CEO of KLegal International (the grouping of law firms with over 3,200 lawyers in more than 60 countries around the world) and began the task of transforming that grouping into a cohesive international business, sitting alongside KPMG.

When regulatory changes forced KPMG to change the business strategy of building a global group of lawyers to sit alongside its global accountancy business, Robert stood down from his position as CEO and from his partnership and launched a consultancy to assist law firms with operational challenges and to assist entrepreneurs and businesses to negotiate and manage large legal transactions.

Robert’s interest in and experience of strategic change in the legal services market led to the creation of NewGalexy. He has written several articles on the topic of how lawyers can improve business outcomes by embracing change, has spoken about “Managed Legal Services” and legal outsourcing at conferences in Europe, the USA and Asia and is an enthusiastic ambassador for the development and application of new technology in delivering commercial legal services.

With a focus on legal technology, Sarvarth has led the conceptualising, designing and the development of NewGalexy’s new age and market disruptive legal technology solutions and continues to take interest in the development of the new legal technology product lines for the business.

Prior to joining NewGalexy, Sarvarth worked in private practice with leading law firms in Asia with a focus on M&A, capital markets and corporate restructuring transactions alongside cross border joint venture agreements in the insurance, information technology and financial sectors. He was often called upon to advise on complex regulatory issues, foreign investments and taxation matters by his clients.
