Lewis Bretts is the founder and CEO of Telon, an AI-native legal services company built to close the gap between what legal AI platforms promise and what actually gets delivered. He is a former Barrister with fifteen years of experience in legal services delivery, including senior leadership roles on both sides of the Atlantic: US Managing Director at LOD, COO and Chief Legal Engineer at SYKE, and Partner at PwC, where he had a front-row seat to how the largest professional services firms approach legal AI at scale.
Over that career he has built and run AI-enabled legal delivery teams across India, South Africa, the United States, and Argentina, developed partnerships with the leading CLM and legal AI vendors, and sold and delivered legal technology programmes for global enterprises including. He was among the first operators to build agentic delivery models in a legal services context, an experience that now anchors Telon's thesis: that the value in legal AI has shifted from the software itself to the work it makes possible, and that someone has to be accountable for delivering it.
