As 2008
draws to a close, we want to thank our clients and partners - whose support
propelled us to yet another successful year. The New Year brings opportunity
for change, innovation and discovery.
Since our
inception as a company nearly 13 years ago, we have continuously evolved to
maintain our leadership position within the litigation support industry. What
began in Seattle with one employee and one copy machine has grown to be one of
the largest full-service litigation support companies in the Western US. With our six offices and 250+ employees, we
have been delivering timely, innovative technology solutions to law firms and
corporations alike.
To reflect
these changes - as well as to fully unite our growing number of offices and
resources - we have decided that the time is right for an important change. So it's with great pleasure and excitement to
announce that as of January 1, 2009, our company name is officially changing to
TERIS.
New
name. Same mission. Same Ownership
While
we officially take our new name in January, our
mission to create timely customized solutions with a high ROI for our clients remains
the same.
When
our founder Stefan Wikstrom chose the name American Legal Copy (ALC) for the
company's first office in Seattle, it perfectly reflected the only service we
provided at the time. And while our clients
understand it and feel connected to our name, those who don't know us are often
confused, thinking that we only
provide traditional copy services. Since the company's inception, we have added
five new offices - two of them with their own name. The time has come to unite our offices under
one name and begin this exciting new chapter in our history.
Be on
the lookout for an invitation to a special event in 2009 celebrating our new
name and benefitting a local non-profit organization. You will also begin to
see TERIS on our e-newsletter,
publications, our web site and our campaigns, starting on January 1, 2009.
Happy
Holidays and best wishes for a very prosperous New Year - we certainly look
forward to sharing it with you.
