Quintairos, Prieto, Wood & Boyer, P.A. (QPWB), a prominent national litigation law firm and one of the fastest-growing firms in the nation, announces the appointment of Raul Ramis as Chief Information Officer (CIO), underscoring the firm's dedication to data security and enhanced client service. This addition is a direct response to the evolving role of technology in the modern legal landscape and signifies QPWB’s commitment to remaining at the forefront of legal innovation for both clients and employees.

The decision to bring on a seasoned CIO like Raul Ramis stems from QPWB’s recognition of the need to elevate its IT infrastructure and vision. It also marks a shift from viewing IT as a mere support function to recognizing it as a vital component of the firm’s strategic framework.

Mr. Ramis brings a wealth of experience to his new role, with a deep understanding of the intersection between technology, client service, and the legal sector. "Working for one of the largest homeowners' and insurance companies in the Southeastern United States gave me a unique perspective on dealing with insurance carriers, insureds, homeowners, and, of course, the legal implications of the claims process. I understand how to provide a service to a client through the lens of legal representation," he stated.

When asked about this latest addition to the QPWB leadership team, Eric Boyer, Managing Partner of QPWB, stated, “I have always believed in proactively investing in the future of QPWB. Bringing Raul on board is a significant step in that direction. His leadership will not only strengthen our IT capabilities but also enhance our ability to provide exceptional service to our clients while creating a more dynamic and innovative workplace for our teams."

“Raul's extensive experience and innovative approach will enable us to streamline operations, enhance cybersecurity, and leverage cutting-edge tools to better serve our clients. This is an exciting time for QPWB, and there is significant opportunity to drive innovation across all departments. I’m confident that Raul will play a key role in shaping our continued success and growth,” he added.

Speaking on the traditional formation of IT teams within the legal industry, Mr. Ramis recognized a crucial need for change. "Historically, IT has been that group that prefers to stay behind the scenes and avoid interaction," he observed. “Well, that’s not how we can operate in today’s world. We have to be present. We have to demonstrate integration between business units." Understanding that technology is fundamental to the firm's success, he emphasized, "After all, it’s one of the three key pillars: people, processes, and technology."

This appointment also reinforces the firm’s commitment to enhancing its responsiveness and agility. QPWB is determined to differentiate itself by equipping its professionals with the tools needed to be as responsive as possible. By implementing new AI and automation tools with a careful focus on usability and security, Ramis and the firm aim to modernize workflows and improve data management, enabling attorneys to provide timely and efficient service that benefits clients in real time.

In an increasingly digital world, strengthening QPWB’s cybersecurity posture and protecting sensitive client data remains paramount. “We’re actively investing in security, strengthening our technology infrastructure, and implementing advanced threat detection and prevention systems,” added Eric Boyer.

Raul Ramis's arrival marks QPWB’s commitment to embracing change and innovation. “Everyone I’ve spoken to here has a strong desire to move things forward. They’re willing to adopt change. They want to see a different company. They want to see a new generation emerge,” he noted. “We will leverage the advent of AI and securely utilize available tools to create those differentiators.”

By investing in technology leadership, QPWB is poised to embark on a new era of growth and excellence, solidifying its position as a leader in the legal industry.
