Documents & E-Discovery Review

When your company is embroiled in litigation, it often faces numerous e-discovery requirements along with a daunting need for document review. In many cases, addressing these requirements is your company’s #1 litigation cost. You need this work handled with exceptional cost-efficiency with no compromise to quality. At Womble Carlyle, we provide value ratio you need.
 
Our Documents and E-Discovery Review Teams meet your quality, efficiency and budget demands by combining:
  • Optimum leverage of project attorneys, paralegals, IT professionals and other experienced staff operating in low overhead-cost venues.
  • Consistent, proven processes, procedures and policies.
  • Oversight by both seasoned litigators and business managers.
  • Flexibility to adapt to your chosen technology platforms or to recommend our own time-tested solutions.
  • Teamwork to collaborate with your chosen litigation counsel so they can focus on advocacy for you.
Benefits:
Womble Carlyle is a leader in the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Value Challenge program. We understand and embrace the concept of re-connecting value to cost, and with our document review and e-discovery services, we actively engineer pricing and service alternatives to achieve this objective. Not only do we offer fee arrangements based upon low hourly rates, but also based upon fixed fees per page or per document, and blends of these approaches that align our incentives to your goals. We are also pioneering fee approaches that allow you to choose the pricing approach after the work has been completed instead of before—guaranteeing your ability to select the lowest cost approach and incentivizing us to maintain our efficiency and quality regardless of the pricing arrangement chosen.
 
Strengths:
The leaders of our teams are experienced members and senior associates with a practice focus on the review and analysis of your company’s paper and electronically-stored information. Many of the ground-level team members have worked together for over 20 years, further increasing our efficiency and flexibility to respond to urgent situations. Members of our teams have received specialized training in electronic discovery issues and processes. We operate using proven procedures and policies which produce consistent work product. Our services are scalable to a variety of client needs and portable in instances where Womble Carlyle is not counsel. We regularly coordinate with national, trial or local counsel outside of our firm.
 
Upon request, we can provide a turnkey operation, including handling the technology component. This allows you to focus your efforts at the case-management level and avoid becoming mired in the details of document review technology and techniques. Alternatively, we can supply only the labor and review procedures and feed our work product into your existing systems and processes.
