  • Regional EDD Service Providers Take Center Stage in 2012

    Regional litigation support service providers are growing due to increased demand for managed services, analysis and review and strategic ediscovery consulting. They are becoming highly competitive compared to the national and global vendors in terms of price and services offered. For example, Minneapolis-based NightOwl reported that it realized significant growth last year and expects the same this year – with managed services at the top of their list. Reasons for this include: 1. The ability for regional providers to partner with national software developers to offer “best of class” products such as Relativity and Clearwell allow them to concentrate solely on delivering service and expertise. This provides a distinct advantage over national or global companies that split their attention between software development, service and focus points outside of litigation support. 2. Proximately counts. Working with a provider that has local technical and hosting resources are preferred with all factors being equal. 3. Relationship and trust matters. Regional providers can provide more personalized hands on service because of their size and location. This trend is reflected by the number of regional service providers participating in Legaltech New York 2012.

  • The Successful Service Provider in 2012

    Thomas Palladino, president of NightOwl, a Minnesota-based data management services provider, identified four key values e-discovery vendors are focusing on in 2012. 1. Smart document review combining analytics, predictive coding and attorney review services to reduce the cost and time involved in document review. 2. Certified e-discovery specialists by the ACEDS organization. We will see more vendors adopting an objective standard of employing attorneys as project managers. 3. Enhanced EDD security using two-factor authentication for all hosted platforms providing a stronger defense against unauthorized access. 4. Integrated managed services as an internal e-discovery system. Corporations will use vendors that are qualified to support a variety of existing technology, fully understand litigation and the eDiscovery process, and can offer full EDD services from cradle to grave. Looking forward to New York Legaltech in February for an exciting first look at ediscovery in 2012!



  • EPIQ’s Acquisition Of De Novo Legal A Sign Of Things To Come

    Yesterday, EPIQ Systems announced its acquisition of De Novo Legal for $68 million. It’s a 2011 transaction, but look for it to be indicative of something to expect in 2012 – service providers getting bigger and broader geographic coverage via acquisition. While huge acquisitions on par with HP’s purchase of Autonomy or Symantec’s purchase of Clearwell are certainly a possibility, the real action is more likely to be in the service provider business.
