Litigation & Arbitration
Proven solutions leveraging deep discovery expertise, intelligent technologies, and consistent workflows to improve efficiency, increase defensibility, and lower risks and costs.
Representative Litigation & Arbitration Expertise
Litigation and arbitration often involves parties deploying strategies and techniques that complicate discovery through overly inclusive or large document volumes, complex data types, tight timelines, among other impacts. These strategies may ultimately lead to significantly increased risk and costs to clients looking to navigate challenges effectively. As litigation or arbitration matters themselves increase in complexity, involving multiple jurisdictions, foreign languages, regulators or associated parties, traditional vendor partners often reach the limits of capabilities and/or resources to serve clients effectively and efficiently.
From small arbitration matters to class action & multi district litigation, Consilio assists law firms and corporate clients with a consultative, collaborative approach to solving for these challenges. Our teams of experts, strategically located around the globe, takes time to quickly understand the specifics of your matters and recommend the right team and approaches to meet deadlines while reduce cost and risk.
Collection Strategies & Keyword Search Negotiations Result In 25% Less Review Volume
The Issue
Law firm representing a large global financial services firm needed assistance with an Early Case Assessment on a large dispute in arbitration involving a substantial number of documents. Keyword lists suggested by opposing counsel contained unnecessarily inclusive keywords and resulted in a significant number of false-positives.
Our Approach
After analysis of the data set by Consilio Analytics consulting team, a revised keyword search and custodian collection strategies we created and tested before being deployed by the client. Our Analytics experts (who are also barred attorneys) also directly assisted in negotiations with opposing counsel regarding the plan and strategy.
The Results
Consilio’s work on this matter enabled the client to negotiate changes to keyword terms that resulted in 25% fewer documents that required review, as well as cost savings of nearly $65,000 (£50,000). Consilio’s client commented on the work and advice received, saying, “the conclusions drawn are absolutely perfect and exactly what we needed” and that “for every hour of consultancy time spent, you saved us over 20 hours of review time.”
