IMS LEGAL STRATEGIES EXPANDS TO STAY AHEAD OF CLIENT NEEDS WITH THE ADDITION OF MACKENZIE LIFE CARE PLANNING

PENSACOLA, FL (November 21, 2024) – IMS Legal Strategies announces new growth, beyond its well-established and respected expert legal search services and into advisory services that can benefit its clients, with the acquisition of Texas-based MacKenzie Life Care Planning. The firm works with attorneys and healthcare providers on life care plans and rebuttals for matters involving significant injuries.

“We are growing broadly and deeply so we can continue to stay ahead of our clients’ needs, throughout the legal timeline,” said James Crane, CEO of IMS Legal Strategies. “MacKenzie Life Care fits all of our criteria for an addition to our company: values-based, client-focused, entrepreneurial, and led by its founder. This is an addition of leadership in a new sector of legal support for our company.”

IMS’s vision is to help its clients succeed by preserving and protecting their reputations, helping them solve complex challenges related to disputes by providing real-time expertise anywhere in the world.

“To help clients become more efficient and better achieve their objectives, they want one trusted point of guidance,” Crane said. “IMS is taking another step toward becoming the first choice to elevate clients’ legal strategies, whatever they may be.” As one of the largest firms of its kind in the country, MacKenzie is focused on quality of life and has the experience, credentials, and methodology that legal professionals seek for their clients. The addition of MacKenzie’s 36 professionals, including its founder, allows IMS to grow life care planning within its company culture, broadening its reach. “Our valued clients will work with the same team they have grown to trust for life care planning and vocational expertise,” said Amy MacKenzie, Ph.D., RN, CLCP, founder and president, MacKenzie Life Care Planning. “At the same time, they will benefit from the resources of IMS, including access to medical experts, researchers, and data analysts to strengthen the answers our clients need.”
