Adaptive

Legal matters frequently evolve. Some variables that can change the focus and cost of the matter, include:

• The scope of the matter changes (number of custodians, date ranges, negotiated terms, etc.), requiring fewer or more documents to be reviewed
• The documents are complex, such as long contracts or spreadsheets with intricate calculations
• The number of markings that attorneys apply to reviewed documents may vary depending on the complexity of the review
• The deadline for production materials is short
• The matter requires foreign language review
• The technology used provides greater efficiencies, such as  the culling or search-based categorization of documents to reduce the dataset, or visual analytics to speed legal review

“93% of respondents said ‘using fewer service providers to do more of the e-discovery process’ was one of the more important considerations in the selection process...One individual reported that by changing the company’s e-discovery vendor and centralizing efficiencies, it realized $1 million in cost savings on a recent matter.”
