Clayton Romero began working as an IT consultant at the age of 15. His love of problem-solving and attention to detail led to him cutting his teeth in forensic data recovery and eventually to technology team management and strategic advisement. By his early 20, he’d found a home in the legal industry, helping attorneys and law firms confront the unique challenges they are faced with.

After more than a decade of IT directorship and advisement, Clayton realized that the legal industry had a problem— the world's data and technology were accelerating exponentially, and law firms needed a way to keep up. Add to that the growing Justice Gap, and he founded CodexTen as a means to help arm law firms and their clients with the tools needed for affordable and effective eDiscovery.

Clayton believes that with the overwhelming speed at which technology develops paired with the reactive nature of law the public needs advocates who have experts and tools at hand to ensure people are on a level playing field when it comes to engaging the legal system to resolve disputes.

While Clayton pursues many creative hobbies outside of the legal tech field, these enterprises also challenge and inspire him in ways that enhance his work in eDiscovery. His two daughters keep him and his wife on their toes as well.
