An article by "Hayley" posted on the eDiscovery News blog.
This article discusses the attorney legal review process during the discovery phase of litigation. The blog post provides a link to an article Katey Wood posted on the Enterprise Strategy Group's website.
The blog post states, "According to Duke University, the ratio of pages discovered to pages entered as exhibits at trial was on average as high as 1000/1 in 2008[2]—and, anecdotally, we can now add a zero. Traditional linear attorney review workflow from the days of paper-based discovery (reviewing evidence document by document in chronological order by custodian or with no order at all) is proving inadequate for tackling evidentiary volumes in tight timeframes on the largest cases and regulatory matter."
The blog post further states, "The solution is to treat e-discovery, including attorney review, as the strategic business process that it is, one that optimizes efficiency by reducing the time and costs involved in litigation without increasing risk or exposure. This report examines the changing market for software and services in attorney review, highlighting innovative technology and project approaches which ESG believes provide opportunities for more efficiency, accuracy—and even defensibility and predictability—in the process."
