Discovery and Information Management

The exponential growth of electronic information over the course of the past decade has made responding to even the simplest of document requests a daunting challenge for many companies and law firms. Regardless of the size or nature of the discovery task facing you, our team has the decades of experience necessary to enable you to tackle those challenges in the most efficient and cost-effective way.

Document Retention

• We bring your entire organization’s existing information into compliance with your retention policy to help avoid sanctions and significantly reduce storage-related costs
• We manage the process and work with you to change the culture so that your organization embraces compliance, minimizes risk, and can take the high ground in any legal proceeding

We routinely capture 40% to 50% reduction in the volume of data retained, which can save up to $50,000 per custodian in the event of a future discovery request

Discovery Response and Case Management

• We provide a single source with fixed pricing for end-to-end response to discovery requests, including analysis, collection, processing, review, and production of responsive documents, under the umbrella of our litigation project management team
• We provide legal process outsourcing for circumstances where your company lacks the available in-house resources to effectively manage the process and outside service providers

Our end-to-end services can cut discovery-related costs by 50% or more compared to the typical approaches used by law firms and other providers

Legal Process Improvement

We leverage our team’s extensive skills and experience in legal services and operations management to reengineer legal processes. While driving immediate, tangible cost savings through increased productivity, reengineering can also improve compliance and turnaround time and reduce legal and business risks. We have had particular success improving communication between legal, business, and IT stakeholders, resulting in the highest and best use of attorneys and an improved competitive advantage. Some of our techniques include:

• Lean Six Sigma tools to identify and eliminate waste and variability
• Metrics and measurement standardization for critical activities
• Service level agreements
• Metrics-based vendor management
