Quench Your Document Review Thirst With QuisLex

Companies facing significant litigation or regulatory investigations must deal with the fact that they need to review ever-increasing amounts of data. They need to do so in a way that is defensible yet still cost effective, as studies show that review is the costliest element of e-discovery. This task is made even more difficult due to the fact that they often have to complete it under extremely tight deadlines.

Enter QuisLex, a premier litigation and corporate support services provider to Global 500 corporations and AM Law 10, AM Law 25, Global 100 and Magic Circle law firms. Founded in 2004 and headquartered in New York, QuisLex was recently ranked as a Band 1 LPO provider by Chambers Global 2011. QuisLex’s nearly 500 attorneys provide services from state-of-the- art, secure execution centers in India to QuisLex clients worldwide.

QuisLex uses a cross-functional Early Case Assessment team of Six Sigma black belts, process experts, statisticians and lawyers to analyze and mine data with two objectives in mind: working with counsel to intelligently reduce the amount of documents requiring review, and creating tailored workflows that make sense based on what the data tells them.

This is not only an effective cost management strategy; it’s a risk management one as well. Defensibly eliminating documents from the review pool before review starts reduces the chance of inadvertently producing privileged documents or disclosing issues that were not the subject of the review. In addition, QuisLex’s clients can use the results of this analysis to gain a strategic advantage when preparing for a meet and confer or negotiating session over search terms and the scope of the review.

“By instituting strong process controls at the start of the review, including deploying project management tools such as Six Sigma and LEAN, QuisLex both drives quality and reduces waste,” says Ram Vasudevan, QuisLex’s CEO. “We take a consultative approach, and leverage our experience with the client, the law firm, the review platform, the relevant industry and on comparable matters to design an optimal process for the review at hand. This starts at Early Case Assessment and continues through review and into any trial preparation activities.”

QuisLex is a proud sponsor of the 2011 Legal Technology Leadership Summit. Thought leaders and decision-makers will be attending the summit in September to learn about and discuss the ever-changing impact of technology on the legal world.
