ZICO Holdings has launched ShakeUp Online, a subsidiary aimed at delivering tech-enabled professional legal services to SMEs in the ASEAN region.

Through its integrated online platform, ShakeUp will give SMEs access to high-quality legal documents that are easy to understand and simple to use at affordable rates. It also plans to team up with big companies and help them boost their customer value as well as improve the quality and cost efficiency of their in-house support services.

ShakeUp is partnering with UK-based legal IT company Epoq Legal. As part of this collaboration, ShakeUp’s services will be powered by Epoq’s document automation system. 

The “unique combination” of ShakeUp’s online professional services and ZICOlaw’s existing face-to-face client interactions will allow ZICO Holdings to be “a first mover in the market,” said managing director Chew Seng Kok.
