LONDON, 5TH DECEMBER – WTA is pleased to announce the sale of its client, Accesspoint Technologies Limited (theaccesspoint.co.uk) to iomart Group PLC (www.iomart.com), a Scottish information technology and cloud computing company providing managed services from data centres and offices across the United Kingdom.

Accesspoint is an IT hosting partner focused on the UK legal industry and provides a suite of managed and hosted services, including infrastructure hosting, software licensing, security management, business continuity services and communications provisioning. From April this year WTA worked closely with the company’s directors and key shareholders, Richard Roebuck, Gary Shaw and Victor van der Poel as their exclusive M&A advisor.

Reflecting on the experience the Directors of Accesspoint said:

“We entered this process with a very clear focus on finding the ‘right fit’ to ensure the wellbeing and future success of our business. Without the outstanding help we were given by WTA it’s hard to think how and where we would have started our search. From the very outset it was evident that they had the right credentials, expertise and more importantly knowledge and contacts within our market sector.”

“Like most things in life if it’s worth doing it never comes without pressure, key decisions and a few heated moments. Throughout the whole process the team at WTA were there offering ‘the voice of experience’, important advice and a considered steer for us to digest. The three Directors would like to say we are delighted with the outcome and would like to pass on a huge thank you to Jeffrey, Alan and the team for the success achieved in finding what we believe to be the ‘right fit’ for our organisation.”

Jeffrey Jenner, WTA’s Partner leading the firm’s Cloud Services practice added:

“This transaction once again demonstrates WTA Partners effectiveness in executing transactions in mid-market Cloud Services sector. It is also our firm’s fourth Legal Tech transaction in just three years. It was a delight to work with such a great shareholder team and we wish Victor well in his new leadership role at iomart and Richard and Gary great success in developing Accesspoint Legal Services, a business providing innovative products, services and IT advice for law firms.
