Our Journey...
Evolution Consulting was founded in 2012 by Jodie Lazell. An expert in international M&A and structuring, she holds masters' degrees in international law and Dutch law from the University of Amsterdam in The Netherlands. During her career she has worked for top tier international law firms Clifford Chance, in Amsterdam, and PLMJ Lawyers, in Lisbon and now works as an independent consultant for Evolution Consulting. She has vast expertise and experience in international M&A and structuring with specific knowledge of Dutch corporate law and is fluent in English and Dutch and also speaks German, French and Portuguese.
Evolution Consulting was founded to meet the needs of today's global economy. Now, more than ever, legal advisors need to be more than lawyers. They need to be more than the sum of their offices and law books. They need to be flexible, business savvy managers, cost efficient team players that can slot into the team of any client, wherever they are in the world, whenever they are needed. This is what Evolution Consulting offers.
Today's technology - internet, video- and tele-conferencing, email, webinars, etc - means that legal services can be provided "virtually", cutting out office and travel costs which often drive legal advisors fees higher than they need to be. This cost cut is what Evolution Consulting passes on to its clients, making top quality advice affordable.
