Mike Burton is an experienced technology leader and owner who has spent 20+ years shaping IT strategy and delivery for top-100 UK law firms and over 30 years executing ground-up information and communications refreshes. He combines CxO-level leadership in legal IT—overseeing practice, content and case management plus cybersecurity—with hands-on engineering roots from BIOS firmware development and pre-sales network engineering. Comfortable in both consultancy and permanent roles, he has led digital transformation programs that bridged legacy corporate environments and modern cloud/AI-enabled stacks. Technically fluent in Java, Spring, Python, AI/ML, Angular and SQL, he continues to write and train on software development alongside running The IT Fixer Ltd. Based in London, he blends enterprise governance and procurement experience with pragmatic, developer-oriented problem solving. A less obvious strength is his longevity across vendor, firmware and law firm ecosystems, which gives him an uncommon ability to align low-level technical constraints with strategic business outcomes.
