Experience

Consumer class action: Building upon a robust early case assessment, we narrowed the scope of manual review by 99 percent in a case involving more than four million files.
Aerospace industry litigation: Through the use of advanced analytics and early case assessment, we developed a proposal to reduce manual review by 80 percent for a collection involving more than one terabyte of data.
Employment class action: Engaged as special e-discovery counsel mid-case. We helped the lead counsel defeat a motion for terminating sanctions, and respond to related discovery about the e-discovery process.
Antitrust conspiracy class action: Managed the preservation, collection, review and production of a significant amount of electronic source and proprietary database data in a complex antitrust class action. Our work entailed significant motion practice involving myriad e-discovery issues, including the discovery of fragmentary and cached data, and the preservation of backup media and digital voicemail systems.
Class actions involving computerized business process support tools and estimation systems: Represented clients in a number of federal and state court class actions involving the use of computer tools as part of business processes. These cases involve a significant electronic discovery component and sometimes require establishment of a laboratory environment. In many of these cases, summary judgment or dismissal has been granted or class certification has been denied. The cases were filed around the US, including in federal courts in New Jersey, Louisiana and Oklahoma, and in state courts in Arkansas, California and Arizona.
State court conspiracy action: Represented a number of insurance companies in a state court conspiracy case against hundreds of insurers. We have managed the collection of electronic documents from more than 100 corporate sites, and are working with both client-dedicated and joint defense group litigation support platforms.
Complex securities class action: Managed the collection, review and production of more than 4.5 million pages of electronic source data in a complex securities class action, saving the client, a Fortune 500 retailer, millions of dollars over other approaches being considered.
Agriculture antitrust case: Engaged as special e-discovery counsel to work with trial counsel on an e-discovery production protocol and to negotiate the terms of e-discovery with plaintiff’s counsel in a major antitrust action.
Government contracts litigation: Managed discovery in a case involving more than 50 million pages of electronic source data, most of it from legacy and mainframe systems and much of it classified. We negotiated protocols with opposing counsel to exchange electronic source information in a cost-effective way that also complied with stringent government security requirements.
Offshore document review: our London team conceived and managed one of the UK's first major offshore document reviews. 2 million electronic documents were reviewed remotely by an LPO in India within two months.
