Three Points Law, the innovation-driven firm leading across tech, sport and commercial/data practices, today announces the appointment of Usman Wahid as Partner. Usman brings 25 years’ experience at top international firms, further cementing Three Points’ status as a pioneering tech-enabled law firm.
Usman was previously partner at KPMG Law, where he was head of the Technology and Data legal team, and BCLP before then. He has worked on some of the most innovative technology transactions including advising BC Group (a leading Asian publicly listed digital asset group) on a joint venture to create one of EMEA’s leading digital asset ventures, a government owned client on one of the UK’s most significant clean tech arrangements as well as multiple digital transformation projects each with contract values in the hundreds of millions.
At Three Points, Usman’s practice will focus on FinTech and other B2B tech deals as well as digital transformation and complex outsourcing projects.
Usman is also the co-founder of VennSpace, a legal AI platform for procurement, contracting and supply chain relationship management. As a result, today also marks the integration of the VennSpace technology into Three Points’ own tech stack and client offering, launching the Three Points Flow service line. This will enable Three Points to expand into larger, institutional in-house legal and procurement teams.
A key feature of Three Points Flow will be providing support to legal and procurement teams in automating multiple levels of a transaction using agentic AI and the organisation’s internal knowledge base.
Commenting on his appointment, Usman Wahid, said: “Having followed the ground-breaking approach that Three Points has taken to delivering legal services since launch, I am incredibly excited to be joining in this exciting stage of the firm’s journey. The firm has a clear mission to combine top-level legal experience with some of the most innovative legal tech tools from around the world, and ultimately deliver a more seamless and cost-effective service for the benefit of its growing list of clients.”
Simon Leaf, co-founder of Three Points Law, said: “Usman is a recognised leader in technology law and innovation in the legal tech space. So when we heard there was an opportunity for him to join us and for us to incorporate VennSpace into our own offering, we seized the moment. This is a real coup for us and our clients in this exciting growth phase for the firm.”
