Lexakos acquires IT staffing operation

December 03, 2008

Lexakos Consulting LLC, a company that focuses on legal compliance areas, announced Tuesday it acquired assets of The Wilson Group, an information technology staffing firm, including its recruiting team. Terms of the deal were not announced.

The acquisition adds to Lexakos' specialties, which include working with corporations and law firms to assist with records management, compliance program management and business conflict resolution. Lexakos will now be able to provide IT professionals on a temporary or permanent basis.

"There's a great demand right now where law departments and compliance officers are being asked to engage in technology initiatives," said Lexakos founder Rick Wolf.

Wolf said the acquisition was completed Monday. The company intends to combine its offices in New York City and New Jersey.

The Wilson Group's president, Jonathan Schwartz, will join Lexakos as executive VP of operations.
