Dan Bressler

Dan is an absolute joy to work with, he goes above and beyond to service his clients. Dan managed to make me think differently around my content, client interactions and go to market strategy, he challenged my thinking and provided wonderful insight. This should be expected from all ‘vendor’/’client’ relationships, and Dan did not disappoint. Dan is excellent, I highly recommend him.

Dan’s a great guy and we’re delighted that he’s working with us at Harbor. You find that when Dan speaks, people listen – and that’s always a good sign.

Dan Bressler has a proven track record of building, and growing markets for a variety a large variety of legal products. He clearly defines a value proposition with each market entry, building such a demand for the products, and making Intapp a brand name. Dan enabled law firms to understand that they can align business operations with business strategy with innovative technology.

In the realm of law firm risk management — and law firm management generally — Dan Bressler personifies the title ‘thought leader.’

I have had dealings with more than my fair share of tech company marketing execs. Dan Bressler is one of the marketing people I welcome hearing from. He has a sense of proportion. He appreciates the relationship with the media and its audience is a dialogue and that sometimes a vendor make get more mileage by providing content of general industry interest, rather than purely product-promotional guff where the corporate messaging is blatant and in your face. And, Dan has a sense of humor. To put it another way: Dan Bressler is a marketeer in the age of Seth Godin, not another hangover from the Don Draper era.

I’m delighted to congratulate Dan Bressler for being honored with the ILTA Distinguished Peer Award for Vendor Thought Leader of the Year. This award recognizes an exceptional individual who maximizes the value of technology in support of the legal profession, provides quality educational opportunities for ILTA members and ongoing learning to help organizations navigate a complex and changing environment.

I worked with Dan for seven years at Intapp and ascribe a lot of our success in effectively communicating a story of change to Dan’s leadership. As an inaugural customer in this new venture, I am excited to work with Dan to help [our organizaiton] share its own story of evolution to help the industry deal with an ever-growing list of business, system and information challenges.

The education, thought leadership, and resources Dan Bressler delivers to the legal community are consistently outstanding. He has a discerning ‘ear’ for what good law firms need to know… a unique perspective and voice to the industry.

In this field of legal ethics and loss prevention, Dan Bressler is, without doubt, an energetic and thoughtful leader and commentator on the use of technology to address the increasing issues surrounding law firm conflicts of interest and management of client confidential information. Dan has also pushed firms and their lawyers – traditionally, late-adopters of technology – to use available technology to enhance protection of client information… and his work in educating all of us on these issue is broad-minded and far-seeing.

I have worked with Dan for many years and am happy that our firm’s control of information access began through advice received from him. While many of our key business partners provide information concerning how their products will improve our processes, Dan gives us a perspective that addresses, but goes beyond, our immediate needs. Through his organizing of peer forums, we feel we are part of establishing the benchmarks by which standards are measured and this allows us to be less reactive. I am very pleased to have Dan as not only a trusted source of information, but as a colleague in the developing areas of risk management.

When we were first introduced, I was immediately impressed by his knowledge and focus on customer service. He made special efforts to connect with me… Dan is a hardworking professional with a deep understanding of the legal industry and excellent client service skills.

As a CIO at several large law firms, I appreciated and benefited from Dan’s forward thinking… And as the editor of a major daily law technology publication, I’m still benefiting from Dan’s wisdom and thinking by being kept up-to-date with the latest in risk awareness.

Working with Dan has enabled my firm to effectively respond to emerging trends facing the industry.
