Introducing Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Data Analytics for E-Discovery

BELLEVUE, Wash., Jan. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Applied Discovery®, a worldwide electronic discovery leader offering multinational collection, early case assessment (ECA), processing, review, and production services for law firms, corporations, and government agencies, announces the release of Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Data Analytics, a hosted solution for early case assessment and for ongoing document analysis throughout the matter lifecycle.

As a hosted solution, Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Data Analytics requires no in-house technical resources or hardware deployment. The document collection is stored on the highly secure Applied Discovery cloud infrastructure, where it is accessible to designated corporate legal teams, outside counsel, and e-discovery professionals, making global collaboration simple and efficient.

Rapidly Identify Significant Documents

The Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Data Analytics platform automatically filters the document set by language, source, file type (over 1200 file types supported), date range, domain, and other selected parameters. Visual representations of data searches reveal key custodians, conversations, concepts, terms and events, informing case strategy and drastically reducing the time required for attorney review. The reports fully integrate into the analysis process, providing full user-friendly data exploration and visualization. Throughout the analysis phase, collections of documents can be transferred into the Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Review database, allowing review to occur simultaneously with the assessment phase.

"The net result is that a smaller, more focused set of documents move seamlessly from assessment to review, reducing the effort and cost of e-discovery document review," said Jon Resnick, Worldwide Vice President of Field Operations & Marketing at Applied Discovery.

"When the ESI collection for a complex matter contains millions of documents, early case assessment can be an overwhelming task. With Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Data Analytics, the visual representation of relationships between people, events, and communications brings critical information immediately to the surface. Clients can easily segregate potentially relevant documents and send them to the review team in one step," added Jamie Brigman, Director of Product Management & Technical Strategy.

Hosted data in the Applied Discovery® Leverage™ repository becomes a rich asset for managing new e-discovery cases. Reviewed documents and work product remain available for analysis and culling to populate document reviews for future matters, eliminating redundant document review and assuring consistency and defensibility of process.

Applied Discovery® Leverage™ Data Analytics is available immediately for hosted case data as well as for new matters. For more information, visit www.applieddiscovery.com.
