Principal Member

Ken Purce, the founder of Research Contract Consultants, is zealous about bringing efficiency and cost savings to the process of evaluating and purchasing legal research.

After practicing law in New York, Ken joined LexisNexis; first as a sales rep, then as a regional manager and, ultimately, he was named vice president of sales.  Spending time on both sides of the bargaining table gave Ken a unique insight into not just the way legal vendors operate, but also the costly mistakes law firms consistently make when negotiating research contracts.

An advocate by nature, Ken has always had a keen desire to “level the playing field” between research vendors and his clients.  Ken now uses his 25 years of experience in the legal industry to passionately promote his firms best interests finally putting his clients on equal footing with the vendors.
