Morae Global Corporation is a leading provider of transformative legal and compliance solutions for corporations and law firms. In his role, Neath is responsible for assisting corporate legal departments and law firms with strategic planning for litigation readiness, investigations, and related discovery processes for responding to complex matters such as multi-party high-stakes lawsuits. Previously, he served as associate general counsel in charge of BP’s global litigation group where he led BP’s response to the Deepwater Horizon Gulf Oil Spill, during which he coordinated the work of hundreds of lawyers, managed a legal budget exceeding US$1 billion, and successfully negotiated one of the largest class action settlements in US history. Neath also helped transform the BP legal department into a true business function. He designed and built an internal eDiscovery specialist group, implemented a state-of-the-art e-billing system, and created a law firm sourcing and management program that saved more than US$70 million in law firm and discovery expense. The innovative strategic and technology improvements that Jim implemented at BP are the very solutions and capabilities that he now helps corporations to design and implement in his role as an executive at Morae.
